Commandos: Origins is a tactical strategy game that takes place in the first half of World War II.

Revealed in 2020, Commandos: Origins transports players back to World War II, where the original characters unite to form the legendary Commandos squad. Engage in close-quarters-combat with The Green Beret, Jack O’Hara, and as the Commandos join forces to take down enemy soldiers with brute strength and calculated efficiency.

A gripping storyline sets the stage for a thrilling adventure, filled with challenging missions and tactical stealth gameplay. With over 10 missions across authentic historical locations, spanning the icy landscapes of the Arctic to the scorching sands of the African desert, you'll find yourself facing varied scenarios and diverse objectives. Each mission offers a fresh and engaging experience that keeps players eagerly anticipating each new challenge.

The game offers an exhilarating real-time strategy gameplay experience allowing players to harness the unique abilities of the Commandos, master the art of stealth, strike from the shadows, and vanish into the night before the enemy can react.

“The Green Beret couldn’t have said it better with his iconic phrase ‘Consider it done,’” said Jürgen Reusswig, Studio Director at Claymore Game Studios. “After more than four years of setting up a new studio, design and development and the invaluable community feedback from various playtests, operation ‘Release’ is a go for Commandos: Origins. We are proud and excited that players will now be able to experience the origins story of the elite unit which started this legendary franchise.”
