After its first delay from 2024 to March this year, a second delay means Commandos: Origins now joins Xbox Game Pass in April 2025, so you're going to have to wait a little longer before you can start stealthily unlocking the Commandos: Origins achievements, and we're going to have to shuffle around our upcoming Game Pass games list.

Commados: Origins gets new Game Pass release date

  • Commandos: Origins will now launch for Xbox Series X|S and PC on April 9, 2025
  • This new installment in the long-running real-time stealth tactics genre will also join Game Pass on day one
  • An Xbox One version is also coming later this year
Commandos: Origins was originally down to launch into Game Pass sometime in 2024, but Kalypso Media delayed its release to March 2025 after issues were raised in playtests. Now, the stealth tactics game will launch on April 9, 2025 for Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Game Pass. Kalypso Media says an Xbox One version is also planned and will launch later this year.

Featuring over ten missions that will take you from the sweltering African desert to the frozen wastes of the Arctic, Commandos: Origins has you control six iconic characters — Jack O’Hara 'the Green Beret,' Thomas 'the Sapper' Hancock, Francis T. 'the Sniper' Woolridge, Samuel 'the Driver' Brooklyn, James 'the Marine' Blackwood, and Rene 'the Spy' Duchamp — and tasks you with infiltrating and sabotaging enemy facilities to stop the growing Nazi war machine.

Playing solo or with a friend in two-player co-op, you will need to use your tactical expertise to sneak, climb, and drive your way through each mission and hit the enemy where it hurts the most before quietly disappearing into the shadows.

Will you be jumping into Commandos: Origins when it arrives on Game Pass in April? Let us know down in the comments. In other Game Pass news, Sports Interactive has canceled Football Manager 25.
