About
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is a 2017 action shooter that continues the rebooted Wolfenstein franchise with intense first-person combat and a narrative-driven campaign. You'll navigate levels on foot as B.J. Blazkowicz, fighting to spark a Second American Revolution in an alternate-history setting. The game delivers visceral action gameplay with a solid 82/100 rating, making it a standout entry in the series.
From a PC performance standpoint, Wolfenstein II is fairly accessible for mid-range systems. An entry-level GPU with a benchmark score around 5968 meets the minimum requirements, though you'll want at least 8 GB of RAM and a CPU scoring around 469 for smooth performance. For solid FPS at higher graphics settings, a mid-range GPU will give you much better results, allowing you to enjoy the benchmark-friendly engine at 60+ fps with enhanced visuals and draw distances.
If you enjoy fast-paced action games with personality and a compelling single-player campaign, Wolfenstein II is worth playing. Its performance optimization means you don't need cutting-edge hardware to experience what makes it entertaining.
Performance profile
October 2017 release. Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus was built around the GTX 10-series / RX Vega era. Current-gen mid-range cards (RTX 4060 / RX 7600) are overkill at 1080p and handle 1440p Ultra comfortably.
Action titles like Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus reward high framerates for visual clarity during combat. A mid-range modern GPU at 1440p 60–120 FPS is the practical sweet spot; VRR (G-Sync/FreeSync) smooths out drops during heavy effects.
Entry-level hardware target. A GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT reaches 60 FPS at 1080p Medium in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus; an RTX 4060 comfortably sustains 1440p Ultra. 4K Ultra 60 FPS needs an RTX 4070 or better.
Storyline
After the events of the first game, in which General Wilhelm "Deathshead" Strasse is eliminated, the Kreisau Circle retrieves the critically injured William "B.J." Blazkowicz from Deathshead's fortress before destroying it with a nuclear cannon. He. is still recovering from his wounds on a stolen U-boat called Eva’s Hammer. Suddenly, the U-boat is attacked by Frau Engel, a sadistic Nazi commander and captures Caroline. Blazkowicz devises a plan to get himself captured and taken to Engel's airship, the Ausmerzer, which is suspending the U-boat above water. Engel tries to get her daughter Sigrun to decapitate Caroline, but the former refuses, resulting in Engel killing Caroline herself. Sigrun has a change of heart and tackles Engel, allowing Blazkowicz to use Caroline's armor. Blazkowicz disconnects Eva's Hammer from the Ausmerzer and flees back to the U-boat with Caroline's body. Now armed with Caroline's armor, B.J is ready to return stateside, avenge his friends, kill every Nazi in sight and spark the second American Revolution.
