Set in the near future, an experimental attempt to harness the power of the Earth’s core ends in a terrifying disaster: the release of the Sludge God. This eldritch abomination begins terraforming the area, turning the soil to scum and the living into undead monsters. Luckily, the genius behind the experiment has a plan to make things right. All he needs is a team of competent, highly trained mercenaries to get the job done.

“We’re happy to team up once again with our historical partner Saber,” said John Bert, Managing Director at Focus Entertainment. “After World War Z, Space Marine 2, Insurgency, SnowRunner, and many others, Toxic Commando is a new entry into the successful long-term relationship between Focus and Saber. We cannot wait to unveil more about this new amazing IP created by the talented teams at Saber and leverage Focus’ expertise in turning new franchises into worldwide hits.”

There is a lot to love about this shot to the heart in the trailer, and the game promises to share that with friends. The game will allow you to take control of one of the commandos, team up with your friends, and send the Sludge God and its horde of things-that-should-never-be back to the underworld. And don’t worry; the game is also looking to let you play in a style that suits you best. You’ll be able to choose the class that matches your playstyle, jump in a vehicle, and unload as much as you can with guns, grenades, powers, and even a katana or two. Whether behind the wheel of a vehicle or on foot, players will face off against massive hordes of mutated creatures, all powered by Saber’s Swarm Engine, the technology behind World War Z: Aftermath and the upcoming Space Marine 2.

John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via the Epic Games Store in 2024.
