- We found a new job listing that indicates MachineGames is working on Wolfenstein 3, following the release of Indiana Jones.
- The team is looking to hire a Senior Gameplay Animator with experience animating robots and immersive first-person games.
- MachineGames previously teased that it was working on multiple projects.
MachineGames recently wrapped up work on Indiana Jones and the Great Circle’s PS5 port after finding plenty of critical acclaim for its latest first-person game. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has even impressed Xbox boss Phil Spencer, setting the stage for future sequels.
However, the team is also rumored to be working on other projects. Although little is known about MachineGames’ future, we have found a new job listing for a Senior Gameplay Animator that suggests the team is working on Wolfenstein 3.
Why it matters: The Wolfenstein IP came to an abrupt halt after Wolfenstein: Youngblood failed to impress players and critics. Several years later, demand for a new game is much more prominent.
According to the preferred skills section of this job listing, MachineGames is seeking to hire someone already familiar with its titles. Moreover, the studio requests experience in animating creatures and robots, a major indication that Wolfenstein 3 is in development.
Experience in animating creatures, animals, robots, and other non-human characters.
-MachineGames Job Listing
For those familiar with the franchise, robots and creatures play a major role in the story, particularly in the form of important boss battles. The same job listing also suggests that MachineGames is looking to create an immersive first-person adventure, a fitting description for Wolfenstein’s single-player outings.
All things considered, the evidence above suggests that the team is at least considering a new game in the franchise. The job listing states that the new employee will be involved in both current and future productions, so at the very least, Wolfenstein 3 seems to be on the table.
Rumors also suggest that the team is working on a new Quake title. Still, this particular job listing lends itself better to the more traditional immersive single-player nature of Wolfenstein’s recent titles. Perhaps both games are in the works, as suggested by MachineGames’ teaser of multiple projects.
