Nintendo Switch 2 owners, it’s time to suit up. Commandos Origins: Deluxe Edition is heading to the Nintendo platform later this year, on December 15th, 2026 (h/t: Gematsu).
The latest in the long-running Commandos series of RTS games (which dates back to 1998’s Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines), Origins was originally announced back in 2023 and made its debut on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (via Steam and other digital storefronts) last year, where it received mostly positive reviews from mainstream critics.
Slack News, for instance, gave it a 9/10, writing that it keeps the "heart and soul" of the previous games while sanding off all the "prickly edges."
Meanwhile, elsewhere, IGN gave it a solid 8/10, praising its number of "creative solutions" and writing that it struck "a great balance between the classic stealth tactics games and modern streamlined ideas." It currently stands at a "mostly positive" rating on Steam from user reviews, suggesting that Claymore Game Studios and Kalypso Media's prequel have managed to at least capture some of the magic of those original titles that we all know and love.
The Nintendo Switch 2 edition will cost $59.99 USD / €59.99 EUR / £49.99 GBP, and is said to feature "the complete base game, six iconic Commando skins from Commandos 2 adapted for Commandos: Origins, a 3D printing template for the Green Beret, a digital Commandos: Origins calendar and the original soundtrack with 15 symphonic tracks."
That's in addition to Joy-Con 2 mouse controls, GameChat, and two-player cooperative multiplayer (either online or via split-screen).
The DLCs Shadows over Crete and No Man Left Behind will also be available and will each cost $14.99 USD.
