Saber Interactive and Focus Entertainment are proud to release the Urban Blight Update for John Carpenter's Toxic Commando, now available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, on Steam and Epic Games Store.

Watch the Urban Blight Update Trailer now.

The Commandos are back in a new mission

The Urban Blight mission takes place one year after the events of the game. Humanity, along with the shady Hopewell company, has failed to learn from past mistakes and tries to weaponize the sludge, risking the creation of another nightmare. Once again, it is up to the Commandos to save the city… and hopefully the world!

Alongside the new mission, the Urban Blight Update includes several gameplay additions:

  • Meet your first flying enemy, the Hornet. This insect grabs players, lifts them into the air, and drops them, causing real bad damage. 

  • Take control of two new vehicles, the Forklift and the Thrasher APC. The Forklift is exclusive to the Urban Blight mission, while the Thrasher, its turret and its missile system can be found across other maps.

  • Discover a new feature called Trials. Complete daily, weekly, and seasonal challenges to earn XP and unlock exclusive rewards.

  • Tear through hordes of zombies with six new weapons, including three primary weapons, one secondary weapon, one heavy weapon, and one melee weapon.

Dress to kill hordes of zombies

Alongside the free update, new cosmetic content arrives with Cosmetic Pack 1 DLC, already included in the Bloody Season Pass. Players can unlock unique skins and headgear for each character, as well as weapon skins featuring skull and graffiti designs. Plus, players can complete the look with a popcorn charm! Vehicle customization is also expanded, allowing players to apply bold stickers and full wrap skins, including graffiti and leopard patterns. New profile titles and icons are also available to round out your style.

Tell Me When the Music Stops Ending

The full music video for “Tell Me When the World Stops Ending” is out now! Originally composed for John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando Animated trailer, the track by Gunship now has a dedicated video directed by Rob Sheridan. The clip perfectly captures a retro vibe, blending footage of the band members with high-octane in-game moments, all enhanced by stylized analog glitch effects.
