Wolfenstein: Youngblood is a hilarious game set in the alternate world of Wolfenstein. The Nazi Paris of the 80's is really hilarious, you can see the attention to precision and detail. However, the gameplay suffers heavily under the AI and is primarily focused on playing with another live player. Overall, this is an average title that tries to get the most out of the world of Wolfenstein and set it in a modern gameplay setting.
Whether or not you enjoy Wolfenstein: Youngblood is going to depend on a lot of factors. If you loved the previous games for their narrative depth, linear story, and simplified gameplay, this might be a tough sell for you. Youngblood is still fundamentally Wolfenstein in almost every way that matters but, like its rookie heroines, it’s a little unpolished and rough around the edges. If you’re looking for something new, innovative, and daring, and can overlook a few flaws (some more glaring than others) then it’s time to suit up, gear up, and once again prove that the only good Nazi is a dead one.
Wolfenstein: Youngblood reminds me of that follow-up movie that no one asked for, with a new director that poorly attempts to live-off and replicate the great work done by its predecessors.
Wolfenstein Youngblood is an awesome third chapter in the latest Wolfenstein series. The fast gameplay, weapon customization, and AI make this a great FPS, but it doesn't live up to the same cinematic level as the first two games.
An interesting and entertaining attempt at bringing the main Wolfenstein series' shooting mechanics into a co-op adventure that for the most part succeeds as long as you bring a friend. Solo play is disappointing but functional and fun times can be had regardless of how you play.
