While consoles have always been a weaker platform for strategic titles due to lack of a proper mouse, Commandos 2 is unable to tackle this problem as well. While the HD Remaster certainly serves its purpose or looking good, when it comes to gameplay and controls, the console release of Commandos 2 massively suffers. The removal of major symbols from the game is a big surprise and something that I did not anticipate before jumping into the game because the game was indeed set against the Nazis during the WW2 era so removing the flags and symbols does not make any sense. While it surely felt good spamming Nazis back on the original game, this lack of actual representation simply makes you believe that you are simply shooting some random military enemies in a generic shooter. All Nazi flags and symbols are now gone from the game. If you have been playing a lot of the original Commandos 2 game, one thing you will notice instantly is that the new release of Commandos 2 is a heavily censored game. Under the shiny visuals, the game still packs the same level of difficulty and strategy-heavy gameplay that will put you through a tough challenge. These changes might not be obvious right away but if you put the remaster next to the original title in a direct to direct comparison, the remaster certainly looks much, must better, and more appealing to play than the original one in many ways. Since this is simply an HD remaster, there are no new effects or details in the game and most of the assets have simply been enhanced to look better on modern consoles. Apart from the outdoors, indoors have massively improved thanks to higher resolutions as the jagged lines outlining doors and walls are not pretty smooth making the game much more appealing.Īs you fight with enemies, the gunshots and explosions have also gained some new textures and effects and look more natural now. Other notable visual improvements include somewhat higher foliage here and there and improved textures and reflections on the water. However, the enemies and other assets in the game look pretty much the same but in much higher resolution. The character faces have new, improved designs and the animations are much better as well. While the visuals are pretty much the same as that of the original title, the much higher resolution certainly adds to the fidelity and everything in the game looks a lot better naturally. The upgraded HD resolution is probably the most prominent feature of the new HD remaster. It all depends on you on how you want to proceed and how long with you be able to remain stealthy in the mission. Each map is beautiful and big and offers multiple ways for you to execute your mission. This makes each mission extremely dependent on stealth, careful use of your commandoes’ unique skills, and other items that you find in the maps. You are heavily outnumbered, there are no reinforcements and your commandos will not survive a lot of fire damage. This is our review of the PS4 version of Commandos 2 HD Remaster in which we try our best to sneak around Nazi-infested military installments and sabotage their plans.Ĭommandos 2 is a top-down RTS game set in the WW2 era where you command a small group of tactical commandoes dropped deep within enemy lines and carry out various stealth and espionage missions. The HD Remaster of Commandos 2 has been developed by Pyro Studios and Yippee Entertainment and published by Kalypso Media. Fast forward from 2001 to 2020 and now we have a brand-new HD Remaster of the Commandos 2 that is ready to take us back to the WW2 era with modern, upscale visuals. The Commandos franchise was one of the best tactical games of its time and everything about the game was just perfect. Released back in 2001, Commandos 2 is a classic real-time tactics game that is very near and dear to most of the PC gamers of the early 2000s. ![]()
