John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando is out next year and we finally have a gameplay trailer. It looks a bit like Saber’s big hit, World War Z, but with a lot more humour and neon. You get to play as one of the Toxic Commandos and team up with your friends (cross-platform co-op is included) to send the Sludge God and his “horde of things-that-should-never-be” back to the underworld.
The game was scheduled for 2024 but will now be released next year on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
Saber say “f you’re the kind of person who likes:
- Buddy-movie vibes and the over-the-top humor, action, and horror of classic 80s cinema, inspired by the legendary John Carpenter…
- Teaming up with friends to face down hordes of monsters who want to eat your face…
- An explosive cocktail of visceral FPS action and apocalyptic environments…
- Upgrading your skills and testing new abilities against increasingly hardcore challenges…
- Saving the planet against impossible odds…
… then now’s your time to go commando!”
“It’s exciting to be collaborating on a new video game with Focus and Saber,” said John Carpenter. “Look, I really like shooting zombies. They keep telling me that they’re called ’the infected.’ Please. They’re ghouls, dude. They blow up real good and there are a ton of them. People are going to love this game.”
