Is Senjou no Ookami still worth playing in 2026?
Known in the West as Commando, Capcom's Senjou no Ookami is a top down run and gun where a lone soldier, or two in co-op, advances through war zones firing and throwing grenades at waves of enemies. The snappy pace, the vertical progression and the raw shooting pleasure make it a pillar of the genre, whose influence was considerable. The difficulty stays severe. For a retro run and gun fan, someone curious about a founding classic or a collector, the title keeps a direct effectiveness and an intact energy.
