The Summer Game Fest was a jam-packed event full of exciting reveals andannouncements.
It was almost like breaking open a pinata and watching all the candy fall out.
And amidst that jumble of games that fell out, one, in particular, caught our eye.
That wasToxic Commando, a newco-op horrorFPS developed by Saber Interactive.
To round out the picture, he’s frequently expressed his love for video games.
So much so that he previously stated his desire to make aDead Spacefilm.
Which is, to be frank, right up Carpenter’s alley.
That is why we are delving a little deeper to learn everything we can aboutToxic Commando.
What is Toxic Commando?
However, this isn’t a willy-nilly run-around co-op shooter.
A story that is being written by none other than John Carpenter himself.
So you’re able to expect a backbone to this horror shooter other than the FPS action itself.
Nonetheless, the game is being developed by Sabre Interactive and published by Focus Entertainment.
This eldritch abomination begins terraforming the area, turning soil to scum and the living… to undead monsters!
Now, the genius who started this mess is looking to clean it up.
All he needs is a team of competent, highly-trained mercenaries to get the job done.
The best of the best in the mercenary industry, on the other hand, are rather expensive.
That’s why he’s gone cheap and hired the Toxic Commandos.
Where do I sign up?
Jokes aside, that is one of the most intriguing plots we’ve seen all year.
