This version is now hidden from the storefronts, but is still available. The original uncut version listed as "internal version" is also available. This version does not support the German language. |

| − | {{ | + | {{ii}} The game creates two files there, one of which is 1 GB in size. This file is not deleted after uninstalling the game and has to be deleted manually. |
| − | {{ | + | {{ii}} Normal Windows shortcuts do not work to relocate the {{file|MachineGames|folder}} folder or the {{file|Wolfenstein The Old Blood|folder}} folder to another drive. |
| + | {{ii}} If your Windows OS supports it, an NTFS junction point (<code>mklink /J <link> <target></code>) will allow redirecting the folder to a different location. | ||
| + | {{ii}} Command line option <code>+fs_cachepath "your_cache_path_here"</code> will redirect the cache folder. Command cannot be inserted in console during running of the game. It has to be inserted as parameter for {{file|WolfOldBlood_x64.exe}}. | ||
| + | {{ii}} Slow HDD can prevent from achieving high FPS when texture cache is collected in this folder. Consider placing the cache (and the game itself) on an SSD. | ||

Version differences
- The German edition [1] (aka LV release) contains only the German language and has content differences (e.g. no swastikas). This version is now hidden from the storefronts, but is still available. The original uncut version listed as "internal version" is also available. This version does not support the German language.
Monetization
| Type | Notes |
|---|---|
| One-time game purchase | The game requires an upfront purchase to access. |
| Subscription gaming service | Available via Xbox Game Pass for PC. |
Essential improvements
Restore cache files
- The texture cache folder is not created by the game, so you need to create it manually to make the cache functional.
- This can fix some stuttering in the game.
| Manually create texture cache folder[1] |
