A nice Sunday surprise has popped up, as apparently id Software's Todd Hollenshead has revealed on Pulse (the G4Tech TV show) that a new Wolfenstein title is in the works by an "outside" studio. Take it with a grain of salt, but apparently
people confirmed that they saw the interview, and you can
download a sound recording of the aforementioned statement. It's interesting to note that id Software's CEO says that internally, they will be working on an all-new IP title, but it is safe to assume that whoever makes the new Wolfenstein title will most likely be using id's DOOM 3 engine.
