ShacknewsSam ChandlerApr 20259/10Claymore Game Studios realized what made the original Commandos games so great, retained the heart and soul, and sanded off all the prickly edges. Commandos: Origins is a love letter to the originals in everything it does.

IGNApr 20258/10Commandos: Origins puts a strict focus on stealth, and the result is slow-paced, challenging, and consistently satisfying when all your plans come together.

TheSixthAxisAdrian BurrowsApr 20254/10Commandos: Origins is probably very good; an interesting historical setting, charming visuals, and deep and varied strategic options. You won't notice any of that if playing on console however, you'll be too busy wrestling with the terrible controls to be having much fun. That, and the buggy visuals, make this one to be missed unless you're on PC.
