I in some way missed that Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory got here to Steam again in April, 19 years after it was first launched. Now Bethesda have introduced that they are launching new devoted servers for the free World Battle 2 shooter, which is able to all run the six unique maps with no mods.
“Although the neighborhood has hosted – and continues to host – servers with quite a lot of mods and customized maps that we extremely suggest, we additionally perceive that many gamers are searching for a extra nostalgic expertise,” mentioned Id Software program’s announcement put up.
There are 4 devoted servers in whole, with one every for the US, Europe, Australia and the UK. These official servers might be recognized by their title, which can be “id Software program Official Vanilla Server – (Area)”.
Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory was developed by Splash Injury and initially supposed as an growth, after which a standalone spin-off, from Return To Fortress Wolfenstein. The mission was scrapped nonetheless, and its multiplayer mode was launched without spending a dime in 2003 as Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. That is free as in free, not free-to-play, too.
Should you by no means performed it, you missed out. Wolf:ET was wonderful, constructing upon the objective- and team-based multiplayer Splash Injury had constructed for ROTW, and I do know individuals who performed it day by day for years. It’s, I feel, Splash Injury’s greatest sport? Most likely? Gears Techniques is nice too, although.
Whether or not it is price returning to now, I can not say, however it’ll price you nothing to seek out out by downloading it from Steam.
