GOG.com Adds ‘Wolfenstein: The New Order’, ‘The Old Blood’ and Entire ‘Dishonored’ Series to Library
GOG.com has kicked off their Bethesda sale with the addition of two recent Wolfenstein titles, as well as the entire Dishonored series of games. Both series are available at a discount for the week, alongside other Bethesda properties including Fallout, The Elder Scrolls, Quake and DOOM.
Bethesda’s 2014 return to the grandaddy of first-person shooters in Wolfenstein: The New Order gave BJ and company a much-needed shot in the arm after 2009’s overlooked Wolfenstein. The mini follow-up a year later in The Old Blood gave us more carnage and gunplay that helped to put the series back on the map.
Meanwhile, Arkane Studios’ 2012 stealth-action game Dishonored brought back memories of stealth classic Thief in its gameplay, as well as its freedom to allow you to tackle missions in a variety of ways. The follow-up in 2016 improved on some of the first game’s shortcomings, while 2017’s standalone expansion, Death of the Outsider, wrapped up the second game’s narrative (though not entirely satisfying some fans).

Bloober Team’s ‘Cronos: Lazarus’ Leaked Prior to Official Reveal
Bloober Team appears to have something in the works related to Cronos: The New Dawn. At least, that would appear to be the case, thanks to an accidental reveal ahead of this weekend’s IGN Live event as part of Summer Game Fest.
In the list of title reveals during the event, something referred to as “Cronos: Lazarus” appeared in the list, but was quickly scrubbed. However, not before the internet picked up on it. Adding more fuel to the reveal were two screenshots posted to X by insider Intercelluar, which appear to show the official art. It’s not clear yet, but this is more than likely a new DLC for Cronos: The New Dawn, given that Bloober Team is already busy with multiple other titles, including the Silent Hill remake, and the recently-announced Layers of Fear 3.
If you haven’t checked out Cronos: The New Dawn (and you never read Aaron’s review of the game), the game is set in the haunting ruins of New Dawn, a world inspired by Nowa Huta, a real historical district in Kraków, Poland. Cronos: The New Dawn unfolds across two timelines: a post-apocalyptic future decaying in despair, and the gritty, industrial 1980s reality. This powerful duality blends retro realism, dystopian sci-fi, and a retro-futuristic atmosphere to create a deeply immersive world filled with tension, mystery, and terror.
Players step into the hunting suit of The Traveler — an enigmatic agent of the Collective, sent into zones scarred by the Change, a cataclysmic event that shattered time, memory, and flesh. What remains is a world suspended between past and future — haunted, hostile, and unravelling. Survival is anything but certain.
