*** Commandos: Origins ***

I loved the original, I hope the new one is just as good or better. Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun scratched the same itch (still got Desperadoes to play)

Don't forget about Shadow Gambit, also from the makers of BotS. Sadly it was their last ever game.

You're in for a treat my friend! I've never heard of Partisans 1941... just gone ahead and bought it in the Steam sale, thanks!

Ah yes, I knew there was one more! Do you know why they shut down? Such a shame and surprising as their games are so good and popular!

Yeah, it's a real shame. Seems they were struggling a lot with work-life balance and the stress of getting projects out the door.

Oh wow, I'd forgotten about this style of games. How do they hold up now? Sometimes older strategic games have clumsy interfaces with loads of menus

Thanks for that, it's good to know that the developers who want to continue doing this work are being supported to do so. Maybe someone will pick up the IPs later on because as we've all said it's quite popular and there will always be fans for more of that content

All depends on whether it is being marketed to consoles as well, and he level on control dumbing down that would entail.

at the bottom of their website opening page it has symbols for PS5, Xbox Series S / X, Game Pass and PC.

So i assume it will be released for all.
