Wolfenstein 3 Can’t Pull Its Punches Like Youngblood

Wolfenstein 3 Can’t Pull Its Punches Like Youngblood https://ift.tt/7tHpgnq Wolfenstein: Youngblood was one sour batch of sauerkraut. Marinated in a noxious and ill-fitting live-service-adjacent brine, this troubled spin-off (and the mediocre virtual reality title it launched alongside) left a bad taste that has lingered for almost seven years. Developer MachineGames’ adventures with another famous Nazi-killer and increasingly longer AAA development cycles have meant Youngblood’s aftertaste has stuck around longer than it should have. This drought is reportedly almost over, though, since reports forecast the streets will once again run red with Nazi blood sometime soon in a new Wolfenstein game, further backing up light teases from the MachineGames team itself.

Friday 'Nite: Fortnite Chapter 4 Rumors

According to those with firsthand knowledge we've spoken to, some dataminers briefly caught wind of "Asteria" in the game's files, and it seems to relate to a new Fortnite map. Some dataminers have even said this plainly, while others haven't been too confident or willing to make such a public declaration.

However, even its name, Asteria, indicates it's a new Fortnite map. This is because of the internal naming convention Epic Games uses when referring to Fortnite maps--they're all named after Greek gods. The first map was Athena, Chapter 2's was Apollo, and the current map is nicknamed Artemis. Asteria, like these other names, is also the name of a Greek god--it even similarly starts with 'A' which seems to be important to Epic, so it's fairly certain by now that Artemis is a new Fortnite map, even if it doesn't explain why players think it's launching this year.
