News, Geek News, PlayStation 5 News, Trailers / Videos, Windows PC News, Xbox Series X News

Saber Interactive and Focus Entertainment are proud to unleash John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando, available now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on Steam and the Epic Games Store. Built on Saber’s cutting-edge Swarm Engine — the technology powering World War Z and Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 — this totally new co-op shooter throws players headfirst into waves of grotesque zombie hordes and towering bosses ripped straight from the nightmares of a grindhouse legend. Fans of over-the-top ’80s action-horror have been waiting for this one. Check out the game’s new launch trailer now and welcome to the apocalypse!

“The game is finally out. Play it,” said John Carpenter. “It’s good and it’s fun. You may not be ready for these ghouls to attack you, but when they do you better learn fast! They will overwhelm you. These ghouls are out for business! Time to kick ass!”

You may not be the best team of mercenaries, but you are a Toxic Commando!

In the near future, an experimental attempt to harness the power of the Earth’s core ends in a terrifying disaster, turning soil to sludge and the living to undead monsters. Leon Dorsey, the genius behind the experiment, had a plan to make things right: hiring a team of highly trained mercenaries to get the job done. Unfortunately, they were all too expensive. That’s why he hired THE TOXIC COMMANDOS.

Tag team with up to three buddies in four-player co-op with full crossplay support across PC and consoles. Clean the zombie mess and take on multiple survival-action missions through a semi-open world infested with endless waves of mutated monstrosities. Search for vehicles scattered across the map and smash those zombies under the wheels of your favorite rides for that pure rush of satisfaction. Unload an array of gunfire, grenades, special abilities, and even freakin’ katanas. When mutant monsters swarm from every angle, teamwork isn’t optional – it’s survival!

John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando is out now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store. Grab the game’s special Blood Edition today to secure your Bloody Season Pass featuring two post-launch DLCs including unique character, weapon and vehicle skins, as well as a Golden Cosmetic Skin Pack.

NC America unveiled today it has partnered with independent developer emptyvessel to publish the close-quarter cyberpunk shooter, DEFECT. The agreement enables NC America to publish emptyvessel’s intense, tactical shooter on multiple platforms at a date to be revealed in the future.

DEFECT, a team-based, objective-driven first-person shooter, is designed to appeal to players craving an adrenaline-packed, cooperative multiplayer experience. By partnering with NC America, emptyvessel can now expand foundational support for its multiplayer gameplay while developing new single-player gameplay.

Founded in 2023 by industry veterans including CEO Emanuel Palalic and COO Garrett Young, emptyvessel’s team has amassed more than 100 years of experience building AAA games in major franchises such as DOOM, Quake, Call of Duty, and The Last of Us.

“This new partnership with NCSOFT really locks in our goal of bringing DEFECT to the world alongside a strong ally,” said Emanuel Palalic, CEO, emptyvessel. “NC’s support and guidance are helping us build a strong foundation for DEFECT’s single-player experience. In an era where many publishers have been moving away from supporting single-player in games, it’s refreshing to have NCSOFT’s support and trust in what we’re building.”

“We’ve worked closely with the core team at emptyvessel from the very start to make the jump from early cash-injections to signing on as publisher,” said Jeonghee “JJ” Jin, CEO NC America, COO, NC West/Arenanet. “We’re thrilled with the partnership agreement. We strongly believe DEFECT’s intense gameplay shows great promise against today’s tough FPS landscape.”

DEFECT is set in a dystopian city ruled by a divisive, enigmatic AI known as “THE SYSTEM”. With ruthless gangs and rogue law enforcement vying for supremacy, players can train in single-player mode for a deep offline experience, or team up cooperatively in 4v4v4v4 PvP squads for explosive, close-quarter firefights featuring dynamic multi-objective battles with advanced weapons and tech.

DEFECT is currently in development and available to Wishlist now via Steam, Epic Games Store and GOG.com. For more details, check the official game website and follow DEFECT on Facebook, Instagram and X. For more on emptyvessel, visit the official studio website. Follow them on X, LinkedIn and YouTube.
