To celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the shooter that started it all, Wolfenstein 3D is now available to play directly within your browser, for FREE!! While Doom might have released later and be more familiar to gamers, Wolfenstein 3D (also by ID) was the game that truly estabalished what the First Person Shooter was all about.

The most recent release, Wolfenstein (2009, Raven) added a paranormal aspect to the classic shooter, reviving the series for a new audience. If you want to take the original on the go, you can grab Wolfenstein 3D for your iOS device from the App Store for free for a limited time.

Giving more of an insight into the title’s development and creation, John Carmack (Technical Director of ID Software) appears on a Video Podcast, providing some history on both ID and the game via a commentary track.

There is no word on future developments in the Wolfenstein series, with the last release Wolfenstein currently available for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
