John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando throws players into chaotic, blood-soaked missions filled with vehicle combat and relentless zombie hordes. In this high-octane co-op shooter, we jump into the opening missions, barely surviving as waves of undead close in from every direction. Massive open environments, explosive weapons, and fast-paced action make every encounter a desperate fight to stay alive while carving a path through the apocalypse.
Along the way we collect upgrades, unlock weapon attachments, and experiment with different ways to take down the undead — whether mowing them down with vehicles, blasting them apart with heavy firepower, luring them into traps, or simply overwhelming them with raw co-op firepower. Toxic Commando never slows down, delivering nonstop zombie-slaying chaos that constantly pushes players to adapt and survive.
John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando is a co-op first-person shooter drenched in ‘80s horror vibes, outrageous action, and monster-splattering chaos. Inspired by the worlds and tone of legendary filmmaker John Carpenter, the game drops you into a supernatural outbreak triggered by a failed experiment to tap into the Earth’s core. As a member of the elite Toxic Commando squad, you’ll mow down grotesque undead hordes across sprawling maps filled with abandoned cities, swamps, and industrial wastelands.
Built around fast-paced gunplay and over-the-top weapons, Toxic Commando emphasizes teamwork and pure arcade fun. Missions encourage experimentation with outrageous firearms, vehicles, and explosive tools while overwhelming enemies flood the screen. Whether playing solo or in co-op, the game leans heavily into cinematic spectacle, pulpy humour, and relentless action — delivering a throwback shooter that’s all about excess, attitude, and carnage.
