Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is almost here. The much-anticipated sequel to 2014's The New Order from MachineGames and published by Bethesda launches on October 27 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. A Nintendo Switch version is coming in 2018.

GameSpot recently had the chance to speak to creative director Jens Matthies in Sydney. In our conversation, Matthies--who was also the creative director for The New Order--spoke about how the success of the first game shaped the studio's vision for the sequel. That's not something he really thinks about, because looking at it through that lens can "f**k you up creatively," Matthies told us.
