Swedish game studio MachineGames appears to have cancelled a secret project, according to recent discoveries. Someone named Timur222 found evidence on LinkedIn from a former Lead Artist who worked there. The artist helped create Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, along with another mysterious game, between February 2022 and January 2024. Fans worry the cancelled project might have been Wolfenstein III. Many players have waited years for the third game after New Colossus launched in 2017.
MachineGames created two Wolfenstein spin-off games that received poor reviews from critics and players. Bethesda executive Pete Hines promised a proper third main game would eventually arrive. The studio focused completely on Indiana Jones development instead of continuing the Wolfenstein series. Teams might have started working on Wolfenstein III before abandoning the project entirely. Indiana Jones became extremely successful, attracting four million players across various gaming platforms.
Microsoft Gaming leader Phil Spencer discussed potential sequels during recent interviews with reporters. He prefers company teams to develop franchises that Microsoft actually controls and operates. Wolfenstein belongs to Microsoft, but Indiana Jones does not fall under their complete ownership. The future remains uncertain for both gaming franchises under MachineGames development. Players hope the studio returns to finish the Wolfenstein story properly.
