Commandos: Origins – A Covert Op to Revitalize a Classic

Dust off your silenced pistol and sharpen your stiletto. Commandos: Origins, the latest installment in the legendary real-time tactics series, isn't just a sequel; it's a clandestine journey into the very heart of the Commandos' formation. Set in the tension-filled year of 1940, with Britain standing alone against the encroaching darkness of the Axis powers, Origins casts you as the architect of a legendary squad, tasked with rewriting history from the shadows.

Forged in the Crucible of Conflict

Forget the familiar faces of the established timeline. Origins peels back the layers of history, revealing the untold story of how these iconic soldiers first united. Witness the genesis of legends like Jack O’Hara and Thomas Hancock, as their individual skills and personalities coalesce into the formidable force we know and love. Inspired by the gritty realism of classic war narratives, Origins sets the stage for a series of daring sabotage missions across a breathtaking canvas of wartime locales, from the sun-scorched dunes of North Africa to the treacherous fjords of Norway.

Origins remains faithful to the series' core tenets: meticulous planning, surgical execution, and the intoxicating thrill of outmaneuvering the enemy. Become a phantom, slipping through the shadows and manipulating enemy patrols with masterful precision. Embrace the art of silent takedowns, utilizing both lethal and non-lethal methods to neutralize threats and vanish without a trace. A completely reimagined user interface empowers you with intuitive control, making squad management and tactical execution smoother than ever. Dynamic enemy viewcones create a constant tension, demanding adaptability and cunning to exploit weaknesses and turn the environment to your advantage.

A Symphony of Sabotage

Origins introduces a suite of innovations that elevate the tactical experience. Command Mode empowers you to orchestrate complex maneuvers with unprecedented control, pausing time to issue orders and unleashing a symphony of coordinated actions. For those who prefer to share the thrill of covert warfare, cooperative modes – available online, via LAN, and split-screen – allow you to join forces with a friend, weaving intricate strategies and executing synchronized takedowns. Six distinct specialist soldiers, each a master of their craft, form the core of your arsenal. From the Green Beret's close-quarters prowess to the Spy's deceptive charm, each Commando brings a unique set of skills to the battlefield. The rebalancing of core mechanics, such as granting every class the ability to deploy grenades, adds another layer of tactical depth. Prepare to infiltrate, sabotage, and rewrite history when Commandos: Origins launches on April 9th for PC and consoles. The fate of the war rests in the whispers of your command.
