Hi,
Starting with Commandos 3 – HD Remaster, future games of the well-known Commandos series will allow players to decide if they want to play with or without historical flags and symbols (e.g., swastikas as insignia for historical German units).
In doing so, we follow the calls from a large part of the community for immersion and realism in Commandos and for this to be brought in line with common practices in many other movies and series. With this additional gameplay option, we aim to bring a higher level of authenticity to the title.
We would like to emphasise that we continuously and strongly condemn any form of discrimination and racism, and any forms of government that support and foster this. It is of utmost importance to us that the implementation of historical flags and symbols can only happen if we can exclude any form of glorification of anti-constitutional symbols. In the Commandos series, players can only play as one of the Commandos who are part of the Allied Forces fighting against the regime of National Socialist Germany. Thus, we can ensure that the flags and symbols only serve to create an authentic representation of the Second World War.
We hope that in giving players a choice, we can offer an option to experience the tactical gameplay of Commandos 3 – HD Remaster in the best possible way for each member of the huge Commandos community.
