They are ”absolutely” thinking of a simultaneous launch on PC and console when it arrives, and he says a new Wolfenstein is in the ‘thinking phase’.
”First of all,” said id boss Hollenshead, ”it really is true that we want to make sure that when we show something it is really impressive and is at the level of blow people away.” Doom 4 is heading for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC and should hit all at the same time.
”That’s absolutely what we’re thinking,” he said. ”That would certainly be the hope.” Rage is id’s next major release and that’s for all platforms as well, due out September 2011. What about that old Wolfenstein chestnut then?
”It would be sad if there’s not another Wolfenstein game because I’m a personal fan of the franchise,” Hollenshead said. Raven developed the last instalment in the series, with it launching last summer.
”Wolfenstein 3D is the game that got me started in PC gaming. So personally I have a lot of emotional and sentimental attachment to that game. Even before I was working at id I was playing Wolf 3D, but we’re still in the ‘thinking about it” phase at this point.”
