Wolfenstein: The New Order for PlayStation 3
Wolfenstein: The New Order for PlayStation 3 is a first-person shooter in which B.J. Blazkowicz awakens in an alternate 1960s world. The Nazi regime has won the war and controls Europe using advanced weapons and machines. B.J. joins the resistance and seeks a way to break that power. The campaign alternates combat with encounters introducing the people behind the struggle, making room for their losses and relationships.
You can begin many situations carefully by silently eliminating guards and searching for commanders. An alerted commander can call reinforcements. Direct attacks remain possible, including with two weapons at once. Your approach determines which benefits you unlock through playstyle challenges. Collecting health, armour and ammunition remains important, even when trying to settle a fight quickly with heavy weapons.
The adventure is entirely single-player. An early story choice affects later developments and gives a second playthrough different details. You still follow a structured campaign rather than an open world with unlimited mission selection. This is the PS3 edition of The New Order. The Old Blood and The New Colossus are separate games and are not part of this disc.
Region and language
Our PlayStation 3 games are European editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
Wolfenstein: The New Order for PlayStation 3 includes the manual unless the product title states otherwise. If the booklet is missing, the title says “No Manual”. This lets you see before ordering whether the game comes with a manual.
The manuals included with our games usually contain at least English and often around six European languages. The exact languages vary by edition, so Dutch is not always included. The booklet explains the controls and the main rules. You can use it to check how to control the game, which actions are available and how its different features work.
The history of Wolfenstein: The New Order
MachineGames developed Wolfenstein: The New Order, and Bethesda released it in 2014, including on PlayStation 3. The studio chose an alternate history in which World War II ended differently. This connected the familiar protagonist to a world both recognizable and disturbed. Military symbols, everyday spaces and machines gained a different significance under a regime that had held power for years.
The story gave B.J. more personal contacts and moments outside direct combat. That changed the series' rhythm: resistance also meant living together, dealing with losses and helping people. Large firearms and exaggerated military technology nevertheless remained important. Silently eliminating commanders connected preparation to the subsequent action. An approach could start quietly and still become a gunfight with two weapons firing at once.
The New Order appeared during the transition between two console generations. The PS3 version tells the same central campaign, but its technical presentation should be distinguished from newer consoles. Later Wolfenstein games developed this direction further. This release preserves the first MachineGames adventure with B.J.: a connected story with defined chapters, personal relationships and battles allowing both cautious beginnings and direct attacks. You do not need to play the older games first.
Similar games for PlayStation 3
Wolfenstein from 2009 uses the same hero and combination of Nazi experiments and firearms on PlayStation 3. Raven Software emphasized Isenstadt and the supernatural Veil. The New Order moves the struggle to an alternate 1960s world and gives the resistance more personal faces. The shared name therefore does not mean a repeat of the same campaign or powers.
Resistance 3 also tells a resistance story in an alternate history on PlayStation 3. Joseph Capelli travels through a Chimera-stricken America using unusual weapons. The New Order concentrates on B.J. and occupied Europe. Both combine human encounters with science-fiction combat, but adversaries, political backgrounds and ways to influence enemy reinforcements differ.
BioShock Infinite also places you in a fictional version of the past on PlayStation 3, with a clearly told journey and striking technology. Columbia and Elizabeth define its story and abilities. The New Order centres on resistance against a Nazi regime. Both give characters considerable attention, but powers, locations and approaches to larger battles differ.
Metro: Last Light combines gunfights with stealth in a world where oppression and survival matter on PlayStation 3. Darkness, filters and Moscow's underground play a larger role there. The New Order uses commanders to trigger reinforcements and more often allows heavy dual-wielded weapons. Careful movement helps in both, but tools and surroundings differ.
Killzone 3 also follows a struggle against a heavily armed opponent with distinctive military machines on PlayStation 3. Its campaign emphasizes an ongoing military operation on Helghan. The New Order alternates action with life inside a resistance group and personal conversations. Weapons and battles feature prominently in both, while the story's scale creates a different feeling.
