Wolfenstein 3D Turns 20, Play it For Free in Your Browser

The classic shooter Wolfenstein 3D was released for DOS on May 5, 1992 -- twenty years ago -- developed by id Software and published by then-shareware giant Apogee Software. The game seemingly put the FPS genre on the map, allowing players to run through corridors and shoot enemies in a first-person view. It was revolutionary at the time, and was only surpassed by id Software's next big release, DOOM.

Celebrating Wolfenstein's 20th anniversary by launching a free-to-play version of the classic PC shooter that runs within a Web browser. All three episodes are intact: Episode 1: Escape from Wolfenstein, Episode 2: Operation: Eisenfaust, and Episode 3: Die, Fuhrer, Die! It can be played here at Wolfenstein 3D's dedicated site, or over on the game's Facebook page here.
