Last year we translated the loading screen messages from Wolfenstein: The New Order, and one year later with the release of Wolfenstein: The Old Blood we’re doing the same for that. Each time you load up your game, or reload after dying, you’ll be treated to some propaganda messages from the alternate universe – but what do they mean? We’ve consulted our trusty friend, Herr Google, and he’s told us what they are (and takes no responsibility for being slightly wrong!).
Archaologie und Wissenschaft sind der Neubeginn
Archeology and science are the new beginning.
Burg Wolfenstein, ein Symbol unserer Macht!
Castle Wolfenstein – a symbol of our power!
Burg Wolfenstein ist auf unzerstorbarem alten Fels gebaut!
Castle Wolfenstein is built on indestructible ancient rock!
Burg Wolfenstein, starker denn je
Castle Wolfenstein – stronger than ever.
Das Vermachtnis von Konig Otto ist stark
The legacy of King Otto is strong.
Der Schlussel zum Sieg leigt in Konig Ottos Grab
The key to victory lies in King Otto’s grave.
Des Menschen bester Freund, ein Hund aus Fleisch und Stahl
Man’s best friend – a dog of flesh and steel.
Die Wahrheit verbirgt sich in der Vergangenheit!
The truth is hidden in the past!
Unser Eisen wird aus kaltem, dunklem Stein geschmiedet

Unsere Zunkunft war noch nie so rosig!
Our future has never been so rosy!
Unser Wille wahrt ewig
Our will preserves forever.
Unsere Zunkuft ist von unserer Vergangenheit bestarkt!
Our future is confirmation of our past. [this is probably too literal a translation]
We’re sure that we’ve missed some during the game, so if you find some more then hit us up in the comments below and we’ll add them here. Same goes if we’ve not got the nuances of the translations right!
