Check out a twisted, playayble alternate-reality version of the original Wolfenstein 3D in Wolfenstein: The New Colossus.
As if the world wasn’t bad enough already in Wolfenstein: The New Colossus, the Nazi war-machine are taking over our video games too. In Wolfenstein: The New Order, our hero BJ can relive (and replay) levels from the original Wolf 3D, a primitive shooter that popularized the FPS genre. That particular Easter egg is back in The New Colossus, with a villainous twist — instead of fighting Nazis, the Nazis are the heroes.
Called “Wolfstone 3D”, BJ can access and play the Easter egg arcade cabinet whenever he takes a return trip to the game’s hub location. It’s just like the original FPS hit, but with a few massive, Nazi-centric changes. You play as a new protagonist, and much of the in-game graphics have been totally revamped for this alternate universe, evil version. In the world of Wolfenstein: The New Colossus, won’t be shooting German soldiers, that’s for sure. Learn all about the Easter egg with the guide below.

Because the Nazis now rule, this is the alternate universe version of Wolf 3D, produced quite a few years before that game — but then again, this is a universe with giant robots and reanimated dogs, so maybe video game technology took a huge leap forward.
