Introduction to Commandos: Origins
The highly anticipated stealth tactics game, Commandos: Origins, is set to be released in April 2024. Fans of the genre are eager to see how Claymore Game Studios, the developers behind this title, will breathe new life into the beloved franchise. Following the closure of Mimimi Games in 2023, which developed the acclaimed Shadow Tactics series, many wondered who would take the mantle of real-time stealth tactics games. Fortunately, Claymore is stepping up to fill this gap.
The Story Behind the Dirty Half-Dozen
Commandos: Origins will delve into the formation of the elite unit known as the Dirty Half-Dozen during the early days of World War II. Players will have the opportunity to control six unique characters: the Green Beret, the Sapper, the Sniper, the Driver, the Marine, and the Spy, through a series of over 10 missions. The narrative promises to blend engaging gameplay with historical context, providing a rich backstory for fans of tactical gaming.

Jürgen Reusswig, the studio director at Claymore, expressed his excitement about the project. He stated, “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.” This commitment to community input signifies a dedication to quality and player satisfaction.
