CODE 1 - 999 Mode

Discover how to unlock the challenging 999 mode in Wolfenstein: The New Order. Learn about Enigma Codes, their rewards, and how to beat this tough difficulty setting.

Alright, let's talk about the 999 mode in Wolfenstein: The New Order. It's one of those special unlockables that really changes how you play the game, making things way more intense. You'll need to find all the Enigma Codes scattered throughout the campaign to get it. There are 72 of them in total, hidden in red booklets with the 'GEHEIM - Enigma Codes' label. Some are out in the open, but others are tucked away in secret spots, so keep your eyes peeled! Once you've collected enough, you can crack the codes on the Extras screen. Each code is a pair of numbers, like '1:1'. The game uses these to figure out special codes that unlock bonus modes. The 999 mode itself is pretty wild: you start on Über difficulty, but with a massive 999 temporary health. This health slowly ticks down to 100, so you've got a buffer, but it's not infinite. Plus, you get unlimited ammo for all your weapons and infinite grenades, which is a lifesaver. Just a heads-up, though: even with all that health, you can still die from falling off ledges or from specific instant-death traps, like those nasty Panzerhunds. So, be careful out there! To unlock 999 mode, you'll need to input the code sequence **Set 1: 01-02-03-04-05-06-07-08-09**. This will set your difficulty to Über and give you that sweet 999 starting health.
