• Classic FPS game Return to Castle Wolfenstein is suddenly even better - 1 July 2024

  2001 was an unusual year for FPS games. Corridor shooters of the kind pioneered by Doom, Quake, and the original Half-Life seemed to leave vogue, and instead it was Halo, its larger-scale battlefields, and its heightened sense of 'realism' that came to define the genre. Between these two epochs - the freewheeling '90s and the more serious '00s - lies Return to Castle Wolfenstein . Imaginative but grounded, fast-paced but punishing, one of the best FPS games on PC is now even better thanks to a transformative unofficial remaster mod. Read the rest of the story...

• Can't wait for Wolfenstein 3? RTCW is getting ray tracing - 11 June 2022

  The Xbox Bethesda showcase is sure to bring some Starfield news please , but many fans (including us) are hoping to finally get a Wolfenstein 3 reveal. Even if it does, it'll likely still be a long way off, but what might ease the wait is a Return to Castle Wolfenstein ray tracing mod. The newer Wolfenstein games by Machine Games are fantastic but there's something really special about 2001's Return to Castle Wolfenstein. It's had plenty of mods in its time - including a recent effort to recreate the lost Enemy Territory single-player expansion - but it's still looking a bit long in the tooth at this point, despite the overhaul mod released a few years ago. Well, if Doom can get ray tracing , so can the best Wolfenstein game - and this isn't coming from a regular fan, either. Dihara Wijetunga is a senior graphics research and development engineer at AMD and they're creating a Wolf PT mo…

• Fans have recreated Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory's cut single-player campaign - 20 November 2021

  A modder has taken aim at recreating the long-lost Return To Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory single-player campaign as part of the game's 20th-anniversary celebration. The campaign expansion, which was supposed to come out in 2003, has been fully reimagined - and is now available on Steam. Enemy Territory was originally meant to be a full paid expansion to 2001's Return To Castle Wolfenstein reboot, but the single-player side reportedly ran into development problems and was removed. The multiplayer - by Gears Tactics developer Splash Damage - was released in 2003 for free, where it proved incredibly popular. While nothing official of the single-player side has been released, modder William Faure has recreated the campaign based on Return To Castle Wolfenstein and Enemy Territory's multiplayer maps - complete with voice acting - which can be installed along with the RealRTCW overhaul…

• Return to Castle Wolfenstein gets an overhaul mod next month - 21 September 2020

  Fans have been hard at work overhauling just about everything in Return to Castle Wolfenstein . The overhaul mod is called RealRTCW , and it comes with a new renderer, expanded arsenal, rebalanced guns, and host of improvements to models, textures, and sounds. It's nearly done, too, and will be available to download on Steam October 15. The modders explain that the project comes with widescreen support, high-quality sounds, and x64 support thanks to the ioRTCW engine it's based on. There's also a new difficulty system and reworked AI, so expect enemies to act a bit differently. The mod also introduces new holdable items such as Adrenaline and Bandages. As the modders explain on the mod's Stream profile, there are oodles of new weapons for you to pick from, too. If you download the mod you can expect to stumble across an MP34, M1 Garand, BAR, MP44, MG42, G43, M97 Trench Gun, Revolver, MG…
