The good old Commandos 2 is coming back to us at the end of this year with an HD remaster. I still remember playing this game when I was a kid, never made it through the first mission, but it was fun anyway.
For those who don't know about this game. Commandos 2 is one of the most successful World War II strategy games ever on PC. You will control a squad of officers to break in the enemy camp and complete the given mission. Each character you control will own different items which suit different tasks. I have to warn you, it is not easy at all. You will have to make use of every element in the game, and be as stealthy as possible. Using weapons carelessly is not advisable because the game will just get harder if the enemy knows something odd is going on.
Recently, Kalypso Media revealed the first footage of the remastered version of Commandos 2 which you can check out below.
Kalypso acquired the rights to the Commandos series from Pyro Studio in July last year, announcing plans for new Commandos game along with the improvement of the previous titles. And this is it, the first glimpse of what they have been doing.
Honestly, I didn't remember that the model back then was this bad and blocky, but I can tell the studio has done a great job recreating these character. The Commandos 2's HD remaster will include a modernized UI, reworked controls, and an improved tutorial.
Aside from Commandos 2's HD remaster, the video also introduces an HD remaster of the tactics game Praetorians, which was released in 2003.
Both games will be released at the end of this year on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. In addition, Commandos 2 HD Remastered is also coming to Switch, Mac, and Linux and mobile devices.
