John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando: New Animated Trailer Featuring Music by Gunship

John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando presents a brand-new animated trailer featuring music by synthwave legend Gunship. A playable demo is also waiting for you on Steam.

With John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando, Focus Entertainment will unleash a co-op shooter on March 12 that combines brutal action, zombie horror, and a generous dose of self-irony. A newly released animated trailer shows only a few gameplay scenes, but stands out thanks to a voice role performed by John Carpenter himself.

In the clip, the horror veteran lends his voice to a grotesque zombie party-god character, setting the tone for an apocalyptic escalation. Animation was handled by Gizmo Animation. The synthwave band Gunship provides the fitting soundtrack with the track “Tell Me When the World Stops Ending,” produced specifically for the trailer. The trio is known for its synthwave style heavily inspired by 1980s film soundtracks.

Toxic Commando is all about cooperative firefights against massive zombie hordes. If you’re looking for chaotic action, the game aims to deliver exactly that. Team up with your squad and fight through waves of undead enemies that constantly keep the pressure on. Explosions, heavy weaponry, and teamwork take center stage — the more chaotic and bloody, the better.

If you don’t just want to watch, you can jump straight into the carnage: a time-limited demo is available on Steam — simply click the “Play Steam Demo” button on our product page. Until March 2, you can try the spectacle yourself and see how well you and your team survive against the zombie hordes.
