Take control of an elite group of commandos who must venture deep into enemy territory and utilize their combined expertise to complete a series of mission-based objectives.

Control nine commandos: including a green beret, sniper, demolitions expert, seductress, thief, and even a dog. All new 3D engine: rotate the environment 360 degrees, move seamlessly in/out of buildings, submarines, planes and under water, and zoom in/out on the environment. Innovative camera control: simultaneous control of multiple gameplay windows in real time. Authentic WWII scenarios: 10 missions spanning 9 different environments in night and day with realistic weather effects. Multiplayer: Go to war with others in a cooperative multiplayer mode (Multiplayer available in PC version only!). New WWII vehicles and weapons: including jeeps, tanks, trucks, ships, bazookas and flame-throwers.
