Commando 3 marks the first appearance of the series in almost 18 years, which last saw release as Mercs in 1990. The sequel sports a new 3D engine and supports 3 player online or local co-op. The title will run $9.99 on the PlayStation Store, or 800 Microsoft Points on the Xbox Live Marketplace.

Those gamers who purchase Commando 3 on the Xbox 360 will also be granted access to the Super Street Fighter II HD Remix beta, which is expected to go live shortly after the Commando 3 launch. A PlayStation 3 version of the beta has not been planned.
