Real-time tactics series Commandos has attained cult status in recent years, and in addition to a PlayStation 4 remaster of fan favourite Commandos 2, publisher Kalypso Media has announced that it’s started work on an all-new instalment for PlayStation 5. Development will be tackled by a new German team named Claymore Game Studios, with recruitment currently underway.
“We are very pleased to confirm that we managed to have both the core team and our new offices up-and-running within [a] short timeframe,” said director Jürgen Reusswig. “We have started development and we’re looking forward to adding more talented staff in the coming months and thereby offering the chance to become an integral part of making an iconic strategy game.”
It means that we probably won’t be getting an update on this project for some time, but followers of the franchise will be pleased to know that a new instalment is actively in production.

I had all of these games back in the day when I built my first computer 20 years ago oh how it didn't like newer hardware than windows 98se. When I built my XP rig and Athlon 64 the game would run at super speed and no offence there's nothing crazy watching the enemy zap up and down the map with high pitched voices when there attacking you.
I did have the first Commandos on PC back when I was quite young, but never got far into it. I'd probably enjoy this series more now, even if I'm still hopeless at strategy games.
Commandos 2 is surely in my top 3 games of all time, so I am very excited. However, after the release of its remastered version on pc a couple of months ago, I have my reservations about a new one.
Still we have mimimi with the excellent shadow tactics and desperados 3 coming out in a few months.
This was announced last year and sorry to blaspheme it’s also out for NS and XB1..Praetorians is also getting an PS4 HD remake. I’m not sorry to rain on the PushQuare parade with this very old news
@Cromwell The opening of Claymore studio for the making of a new commandos game was announced today, so what are you talking about old news?
I played commandos 1 & 2 on PC. Excellent and very hard games, especially the second one.
Up up for some more commandos defo!
@Stevenfins along with Praetorians hd it was announced last year. PC first followed by consoles and Android/IOS
@Cromwell Yes I know that, but the opening of the new studio with the name Claymore Game Studios with the purpose of making the game was announced on Thursday and not last year.
Pushsquare did not report old news like you said.
@Stevenfins the headline was Commando’s to make a comeback. I misread the PS5..you’ve made your point stop going on about it. The world has worse problems Than bloody games
@Stevenfins people and families are dying
