Quite unexpectedly, the story is actually pretty good. What follows is a desperate fight to the death against the victorious war machine, led by Blazko, Anya and a surprising face from the series’ past. The main events of The New Order take place 14 years later, when Blazko wakes up in an asylum and rescues his carer, Anya, from the Nazis, who he soon realises won the war and now control the entire world. Fighting alongside British pilot Fergus Reid and a greenhorn named Wyatt, Blazko succeeds in getting shot down and captured, and is then forced to make a sadistic choice before getting blown up and almost lobotomised. It begins in 1946, as Blazko and a squad of US soldiers attempt to infiltrate the headquarters of General Deathshead (who you will remember if you played the last game). “BJ” Blazkowicz returns as protagonist, here referred to as Blazko and thus deftly avoiding the reflexive snigger every time someone says “BJ”. None of it makes very much sense, you’ll constantly scratch your head and raise eyebrows throughout, and yet within its own context, it all works rather well.Ĭaptain William J. I mention it because it’s kind of indicative of The New Order as a whole. I don’t know what it means, but it works perfectly in the context within which it is uttered. To date, The New Order is the ninht game based in the Wolfenstein universe, but the first to feature the term “radgie gadgie” as an insult.
