JOHN CARPENTER’S TOXIC COMMANDO RELEASES MARCH 12 ON PLAYSTATION 5, XBOX SERIES X|S & PC!

Saber Interactive and Focus Entertainment are thrilled to announce that the ’80s action-horror-inspired co-op shooter John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando will infest PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store on March 12, 2026. Both the game’s Standard and Blood Editions are available to pre-order now on all platforms and include the Leon’s Secret Stash DLC as a free pre-order bonus. The launch date was unveiled alongside a new blood-pumping release date trailer during The Game Awards 2025 ceremony.

NO BRAINS. NO BRAKES. NO FILTER.

In the near future, an experimental attempt to harness the power of the Earth’s core ends in a terrifying disaster, turning soil to sludge and the living to undead monsters. Leon Dorsey, the genius behind the experiment, had a plan to make things right: hire a team of highly trained mercenaries to get the job done. Unfortunately, they were all too expensive. That’s why he hired THE TOXIC COMMANDOS.

Tag team as a squad of up to four players, featuring full crossplay support across PC and consoles. Send the Sludge God and its horde of things-that-should-never-be back to the underworld as you drive across semi-open maps and tear through the wasteland. Find how your squad clicks, shooting swarms of enemies together and smashing them under the wheels of your favorite ride for that pure rush of satisfaction. Unload an array of gunfire, grenades, special abilities, and even freaking katanas. When mutated monstrosities swarm from every angle, teamwork isn't optional—it's survival.

Pre-order the Standard or Blood Edition and Get Free DLC

John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando will come in two editions—the Standard Edition and the Blood Edition, both available for pre-order now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via the Epic Games Store and Steam.
