Nope. All of the Wolfenstein games have been unabashed first-person
shooters with very little in the way of stealth (there is a bit of
sneaking in the New Order / New Colossus games, but it's not
mandatory. It just makes things a bit easier if you stay out of sight
long enough to kill the officers, as they spawn in endless
reinforcements once they're alerted. But it's not hard to go in
guns-blazing either).

Oh, I suppose there's a little bit of 'spycraft' where you pretend to
be a Nazi officer in some of the games, but these are almost entirely
scripted events and you're quickly detected as a fraud, leading up to
the inevitable runnin'-n-gunnin' the franchise is famous for.

The original "Wolfenstein" games were almost the "Hitman" games of
their day, if you take into consideration the vast differences in
computing hardware. The maps were fairly open, the goal was to
assassinate your target, you could disguise yourself as enemies (and -
if you were fast enough - could re-stealth after getting detected),
and play it 'loud' or 'quiet', as you preferred.

It just baffles me that the originals haven't even seen a FAN remake
in all these years.
