Prepare yourselves, gamers, for an adrenaline-fueled journey into a post-apocalyptic nightmare with John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando, an upcoming first-person shooter (FPS) and co-op action game developed by Saber Interactive and published by Focus Entertainment. Slated for release in 2024, this highly anticipated title is set to captivate players on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S platforms.

The premise of John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando plunges players into a near-future world where a groundbreaking experiment aimed at tapping into the Earth’s core goes disastrously wrong, unleashing an unimaginable horror known as the Sludge God. This eldritch abomination wreaks havoc on the environment, transforming once-thriving landscapes into desolate wastelands and turning the living into nightmarish undead creatures.

However, all hope is not lost. The brilliant mastermind behind the ill-fated experiment has devised a plan to rectify the cataclysmic situation. To execute this daring plan, he has enlisted the aid of a team of capable and highly skilled mercenaries. Unfortunately, hiring such individuals comes at a hefty price. That’s where the Toxic Commandos step in.

Players assume the role of one of these elite commandos, joining forces with their friends to combat the Sludge God and its grotesque army. Each commando possesses unique abilities and playstyles, allowing players to tailor their experience to suit their preferences. Whether you prefer unleashing a hail of bullets, lobbing grenades, or wielding a deadly katana, there’s a class for every type of player.

John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando promises to deliver a nostalgic homage to the buddy-movie vibes and over-the-top humor, action, and horror reminiscent of the iconic 80s cinema that made Carpenter a legend. Drawing inspiration from his works, the game captures the essence of Carpenter’s unique style and infuses it with modern gaming mechanics, creating an irresistible blend of entertainment.
