During an interview with IGN last month, Bethesda&#8217;s senior vice president of global marketing and communications Pete Hines said the <a class=\"external\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2018\/08\/bethesdas_pete_hines_says_switch_game_releases_have_been_a_huge_success\">demand<\/a> for the publisher&#8217;s IP on the Nintendo platform was huge.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with Metro recently, where he also spoke about the company&#8217;s <a class=\"external\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2018\/09\/bethesda_has_spoken_to_nintendo_about_smash_bros_future_nintendo_exclusives_are_possible\">relations<\/a> with Nintendo, Hines responded to a question about future entries in the <strong>Wolfenstein<\/strong> series &#8211; specifically, if there would be a mainline third entry released after the recently announced standalone game <strong>Wolfenstein: Youngblood<\/strong>. He didn&#8217;t exactly shy away from the question, assuring fans the game would definitely be happening:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Yeah, sure. Absolutely we\u2019re making a Wolfenstein III. They said on stage that they\u2019re taking a break from the larger story to do this thing. But we all have to see how that ends. [laughs]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Although no platforms were mentioned, given the fact the Switch received the second game in the series &#8211; <strong><a class=\"external\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch\/wolfenstein_ii_the_new_colossus\">Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus<\/a><\/strong> &#8211; there&#8217;s definitely a glimmer of hope the third game, whenever it is announced, will also come to Nintendo&#8217;s system.<\/p>\n<p>In saying this, at this year&#8217;s E3, when Bethesda did reveal Wolfenstein: Youngblood, the Switch was absent from the announcement list even after <a class=\"external\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2018\/06\/rumour_new_gamestop_listing_reveals_wolfenstein_youngblood_for_switch\">rumoured<\/a> listings of a Nintendo version.
