2009’s Wolfenstein might finally be relisted on Steam

Prior to the arrival of The New Order in 2014, the most recent entry in the classic FPS series was 2009’s Wolfenstein. Developed by Raven Software (known for the underrated X-Men Origins: Wolverine game; now serving as a Call of Duty support studio), the series would be pretty much rebooted in the wake of Zenimax Media’s acquisition of id Software. Officially delisted from Steam over a decade ago, it seems 2009’s Wolfenstein might be gearing up for a return.

As discovered by multiple users, the official SteamDB page for 2009’s Wolfenstein has recently seen a bunch of internal activity, with the game having its previous release date (August 2009) removed alongside new strings which seems to showcase Steam Deck testing.

While nothing may come of this, the timing is interesting, with Bethesda’s QuakeCon set to go live early next month – celebrating its 30th anniversary.

Additionally, there has been an increasing amount of discourse surrounding the Wolfenstein series, with rumours suggesting that a 3rd entry from Machine Games (who developed Wolfenstein: The New Order and The New Colossus) is currently in the works.

Regardless, here’s to hoping that Bethesda / Microsoft are indeed planning to bring back 2009’s Wolfenstein in one form or another. Whether this will be a remaster, an enhanced port or even just the original game being relisted once again, it will be welcome to revisit one of Raven Software’s last original games.
