Summary

Wolfenstein: Youngblood has a TrueGG Rating of 44.3%: the positive share among 291 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 5+ hours, close to Steam's overall 43.0%. Players who really play it broadly agree with the headline number (all time: 54.1%).

Reviews written under 2 hours make up 23% of the total, and only 18% of them are positive. Some players bounce off early, but those who get past the opening rate it higher. Steam accepts refund requests within 2 hours of play and 14 days of purchase.

Negative reviews most often mention crashes and bugs and boredom (less than at launch). Positive reviews praise how fun it feels and graphics and music.

Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (45.7% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.

All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-17.

Why it is rated this way

What drives the rating

Complaints center on technical quality (Crashes & bugs). These can be fixed, so check recent reviews too. It is also a game many people bounce off early (early reviews are much less positive than those of players who stuck with it).

Counted from 324 recent negative and 319 positive reviews in Japanese and English, using our published topic dictionary. No AI is used. Topics overlap, so shares do not add up to 100%. Sarcasm and nuance are not detected, and this does not show cause and effect.How we count
