Developed by MachineGames, "Wolfenstein 2: The Great Colossus" has been successful in capturing the attention of the gaming community, as well as the rest of the world. They have been in the center of a controversy as many thought that they were likening the current U.S. government to Nazis.

Although fans expected it considering the topic and promotion of "Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus," Adolf Hitler's appearance in the new launch trailer was still shocking to a degree. Most fans claim that it might be because of the implications of such a name and face. Regardless, fans were thrilled to get an impression on what they can expect with the newest installment.
The trailer featured an uninhibited Nazi bashing in the form a bloody and violent portrayal of how the enemies can be killed in the game. Furthermore, Hitler looks almost sickly and dying. As to how this is going to play in the plotline of "Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus," fans will have to wait and see.
"I can probably give you a figure but I have to think about that," creative director Jens Matthies told PC Gamer when asked about the how many Nazis will die a bloody death in the game. "I would say, close to a thousand. That's what I think. That's a little bit speculative but in the neighborhood of one thousand. Let me revise that: I mean about a thousand personal kills, but then there are a few thousand impersonal kills as well."
Most fans believe that the final boss will be Hitler himself. Although there is no confirmation on that, fans seem to be convinced that it is going to feature a Hitler armed with weapons and grenades. "Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus" is scheduled to be released on Oct. 27 for PlayStation4, Xbox One, and PC.
