Wolfenstein Youngblood is out today on PC and tomorrow for consoles. From what we’ve seen so far, it looks like more of the same Nazi-blasting fun we’ve come to expect from the series, and that’s not a bad thing. But if you need a little more, here’s a rundown of what critics have to say about the game:

PC GAMER — 79/100

“Youngblood’s gorgeous, terrible world is worth exploring, despite a slight narrative and oppressively boring progression systems.”

– James Davenport

IGN — 6.5/10

“Wolfenstein: Youngblood is an aggressively okay co-op shooter that doesn’t come close to recapturing the joy of its predecessor’s action or its surprisingly interesting characters and story.”

– Dan Stapleton

GAME INFORMER — 8.5/10

“Youngblood excels as an entertaining shooter with the right kind of RPG elements and choices.”

– Javy Gwaltney

DESTRUCTOID — 6/10

“Youngblood makes plenty of strides forward for this series, but it also takes some steps backward that end up hurting the overall package.”

– Peter Glagowski

THE GUARDIAN — 4/5

“This a game about two young women blasting racists into goo – for me, that equals a bloody good time.”

– Rick Lane

POLYGON — Polygon Recommends

“It seems like it was designed as a relatively inexpensive crowd-pleaser of an FPS, and I will admit that I was very entertained. “

– Ben Kuchera

And there you go! Though some of the critics have a few gripes with the game, it looks like they generally think fans of the series will have a blast while blasting away at Nazis in Paris. Good times!
