Saber Interactive and Focus Entertainment have joined hands again after the success of 2024’s Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2. This time around, it’s John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando, a co-op first-person shooter that’s already made waves at Gamescom 2025. Check out the latest gameplay trailer below, which also features the release.

With horror legend John Carpenter also involved in the game’s writing, Toxic Commando pits you and three other players against hordes of zombies that are out to get you in the wake of a failed experiment that has the scientists who created it scrambling to contain its adverse effects. It’s a simple premise that sets up the gameplay loop well, and the game brings a lot of potential to the table.

With the title garnering many positive impressions at Gamescom 2025, the new game makes solid use of Saber’s proprietary Swarm engine that has delivered solid results in titles like World War Z and Space Marine 2Toxic Commando is definitely a title to look out for when it releases in March 12, 2026.
