Rather than relying on all out gunplay, these missions require stealth, forward planning, and making use of all your squad to the best of their individual abilities. The core gameplay consists of commanding a small squad of the titular commandos through 10 missions spanning 9 different environments in night and day, with realistic weather effects. But hey, being a commando behind enemy lines in WWII wasn’t either, so there is some parity there. A lot.ĭying frequently is something to get used to in Commandos 2 as it is certainly no easy ride. I of course died during this training sequence. Not knowing the controls too well also didn’t help during the training sequence where my characters often ended up flailing around like a 90’s rave club partygoer on acid, instead of a highly trained stealthy commando. The first thing to do was to try and memorise the control layout, which thankfully can be brought up at any time, and it took a while to commit everything to memory before it became (almost) intuitive. I played Commandos 2 on PC almost 20 years ago and had fond memories of it, so when offered a review code to play the HD remaster on Nintendo Switch, I quickly put on my camouflage gear and got ready to dive back into the skirmishes of WWII.
