Wolfenstein: Youngblood is a co-op experience where play as one of BJ Blazkowicz's twin daughters and undertake a do-or-die mission to find their missing father in 1980s Paris.

Set in 1980, 19 years after BJ Blazkowicz ignited the second American Revolution, Wolfenstein: Youngblood introduces the next Blazkowicz generation to the fight against the Nazis.

As BJ Blazkowicz's twin daughters, Jess and Soph, you'll take to the streets of 80s Nazi-occupied Paris as you search for your father.

Establish a home base in the Parisian Catacombs and take on missions in any order you want. If you choose to roll solo, you'll be paired up with an AI companion. As you complete missions, you'll level up and unlock unique abilities, weapon attachments, gadgets, cosmetics and more.

MachineGames and Arkane Studios Lyon recently released patch 1.0.4 to PC, Xbox One, and PS4, bringing the ability to pause gameplay in offline mode, among other changes. Full patch notes are available here. Patch 1.0.4 will be available on Switch as a combined patch with Patch 1.0.5 in the coming weeks.

The game’s next update, Patch 1.0.5 dropped on PC and introduced an even larger number of player-requested features. Chief among those updates is the addition of checkpoints to Towers and end bosses, adding a toggle to remove enemy health bar visuals for a more classic Wolfenstein experience, and improvements to the sister AI that allow her to retreat more often when taking damage from large enemies. Here are some of the other key updates coming with 1.0.5:

  • Adjusting difficulty of all boss fights
  • Taking a variety of actions designed to reduce the feeling of enemy “bullet sponginess”
  • Granting ammo for basic weapons after player respawn
  • Adding more special weapon ammo throughout more difficult areas
  • Adding duplicate tutorial laptops to the game to make 100% completion more attainable
  • Fixing an issue that could cause an area to respawn enemies prematurely

Patch 1.0.5 will arrive on Xbox One and PS4 next week with the Switch patch coming in the following weeks. Check out the Update 1.0.5 Patch Notes here and learn more about what improvements players can expect to see in Wolfenstein: Youngblood.
