Check out our full written Wolfenstein: The New Order review.

Wolfenstein: The New Order will be on store shelves in just a few short weeks, but if you can’t wait to get a look at the game, Bethesda and MachineGames have you covered. The team behind the game took to Twitch for the second time in the span of a week, recording roughly an hour of gameplay (in total), showing off an early section of the game.

This gameplay originally debuted at PAX East where fans were able to play a portion of it. For the rest of us that weren’t able to make it to Boston for the event, the gameplay begins during World War II, back when the war was in full swing and the Allies still had a chance. As we’ve seen in our previews, the game jumps ahead several years after the war has been lost. Protagonist B.J. Blazkowicz awakwns after years in a coma to discover the Nazis rule the Earth — something that B.J. is not about to accept.

The video below takes place shortly after the game’s first mission. It introduces the game’s mechanics, along with some of the bizarre Nazi technology that becomes the power behind The New Order.

Wolfenstein: The New Order releases for PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One on May 20, 204.

Check out this charming new game included in your Netflix subscription

Characters stand around a burning pile of hay in Paper Trail.

If you have a Netflix subscription, but have yet to try any of the games included with it, you’re missing out. The streaming service has quietly put together a strong library of titles over the past few years, from certified classics like Hades to strong original games like Laya’s Horizon. Next week, Netflix subscribers can get another charming indie with their subscription: Paper Trail.

Developed by Newfangled Games, Paper Trail is a top-down puzzle adventure about a girl leaving her small town behind to attend university. Her journey isn’t straightforward, though. To achieve her dream, she needs to navigate puzzling forests, proving that she has the brains to tackle the challenges awaiting her on the other side. There’s a unique twist, though: Her world is made up of paper. That gives Paper Trail a tactile gameplay hook that makes it a charming, if light, addition to Netflix’s library.

Princess Peach is getting her first starring role in a game in over 18 years, while franchises like Alone in the Dark and Dragon's Dogma are making a comeback after long dormancies. March 22, in particular, looks like it will be a busy day with three AAA games all launching alongside each other.

March certainly contains a diverse lineup of games you don't want to miss, so you'll want to keep an eye on everything coming out. Here's what you can expect to play this month, from major releases to smaller indies.
