Games that have adaptive resolutions are the ones that tend to handle the Switch transition the best. Wolfenstein 2 is one such game, and while studio Panic Button has made some savage cuts to maintain the frame rate, the game's Switch port holds up surprisingly well.

Today during Bethesda's E3 press conference, Machine Games announced a new Wolfenstein game.

It's been six months since Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus launched for PC, Xbox One and PS4. This sequel to 2014's Wolfenstein: The New Order appeared during a tense time in US politics, promoted and released while racism and white nationalism were at the forefront of Americans' minds. Here's how things have gone six months later.

2017's Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus is a game that trades on the grand spectacle of alternate history. Like Philip K. Dick's The Man in the High Castle or Kim Stanley Robinson's The Years of Rice and Salt, it asks us to consider a bombastic "what if" that is, nonetheless, grounded in some kind of historical reality. So what do actual historians think about it?

Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus' trio of DLC, The Freedom Chronicles, came to a close yesterday. The third episode's generic title, "The Deeds of Captain Wilkins", is apt. This short DLC is forgettable and uninteresting.

Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus featured stealth sequences that didn't always work out. The game's latest piece of downloadable content, The Diaries of Agent Silent Death, provides the sort of sneaky backstabbing that the main game was missing.

I've played approximately two billion video games this year. Narrowing that list down to 10 was a painful and bloody process, but I finally managed to choose my favourite games from one of the most exciting years in recent memory.

One of the best features of the rebooted Wolfenstein games has been its likeable cast of characters. Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus was full of complex resistance fighters with different experiences and opinions to hero BJ Blazkowicz. The game's new downloadable content explores the lives of other people who live and die in the alternate Nazi-controlled US '60s. Wolfenstein without BJ is still fun, but it's not as impactful.

A picture is worth 1,000 words and a good Simpsons picture is worth one quijibo. An intrepid Twitter user is turning still from The Simpsons into wonderful summaries of 2017's top video games.

This is the difficulty menu for Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus. In a callback to the original games which showed up in The New Order as well, the menu's telling you only babies play the game on easy. It's funny on the surface, but also an insidious kind of peer pressure. Don't listen to it.

Oh boy. This one's a treat. Wolfenstein II isn't just one of my favourite games of the year, it's one of the most stylish games of the year, so it's a pleasure to be showcasing a big collection of art that went into its creation.

Today on Highlight Reel we have robot stomach issues, Napoleonic headshots and psychedelic Battlefront 2 loot boxes!

As expected, Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus was modified for the German market, with edits including the time-honored tradition of removing Hitler's moustache. To counter this, a team have created their own low-budget version of the game called Wolfenstache.

Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus is about injury. From crippled heroes to resistance leaders grappling with PTSD, the game's cast of heroes bears deep wounds that recall the all-too-real injuries of war veterans, victims, and those who would ignore them.

Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus's first round of downloadable content has unlocked. The Freedom Chronicles: Episode Zero blend pulp sensibilities with strong levels design to create a fun package that shows a lot of promise.

I wish more video games would let their hair down like Wolfenstein: The New Colossus does.

Wolfenstein 2's base, the U-boat Eva's Hammer, features an obstacle course known as the 'kill house' where BJ and pals can compete for the top score.

The top time for the kill house seems to be permanently held by Set Roth's cat/monkey hybrid, but one player found a clever way to get first place.

The idea of a shared universe between Doom and Wolfenstein goes all the way back to Doom II, but it's never been officially confirmed. A special weapon at the end of Wolfenstein 2 is further evidence that the games share a common timeline.

Wolfenstein's BJ Blazkowicz is one of the original first person shooter protagonists. He is a muscle bound action hero, the all-American army man. Through examining BJ's body, Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus paints a thin line between power fantasy and Aryan ideals.
