Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus has seen a rather elaborate campaign since the game's official announcement last month at Bethesda's Bethesdaland event, with a good amount of gameplay footage and promotional tie-ins. But nothing could've prepared us for the company's latest trailer, which highlihts a certain game show that's a bit on the twisted side.

Highlighting a show called German…Or Else!, the trailer features two contestants that try to translate words – in this case, abstract nouns – into German language. One seems to have the habit knocked down pretty tight. The other, poor, poor Linda, only gets a chance to buzz in once, and gets the answer wrong.

What's twisted is that it's based on the alternate World War II universe that the Wolfenstein games have become known for, which means, as Linda loses, she finds herself being taken away for a little "re-education" – much to the delight of the crowd.

The trailer also features some gameplay footage from the upcoming first-person shooter, which promises to be quite the tense go-around for B.J. Blazkowicz and company, as they attempt to stop the Nazi regime that has taken over the world.

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus releases on October 27th for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.
