Arriving alongside Fire Emblem: Three Houses on July 26 is the next entry in Bethesda's Nazi-shooting series, Wolfenstein: Youngblood. Set 20 years after the events of Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, Youngblood begins with series hero BJ Blazkowicz going missing in Paris, and it's up to his twin daughters Jess and Soph to find him. Despite the change in leads, Youngblood offers the same over-the-top Nazi-killing the series is known for (with some new RPG elements for good measure), and the entire game is playable in co-op.
