PS1 version

It is set in the fantasy worlds where the Commando Elite are trying to eliminate the Gorgonites and destroy their homeworld of Gorgon. Most of the characters are in it, along with the new addition of Stench: the frog-like Gorgonite and Nibble: the bat-like Gorgonite, and the Commando Elite's machinery: Bipod, Mortar and Sentry. Players take the role of the cat-like leader Archer, as he battles against the Commando Elite, tries to save his homeworld and goes to their war-torn homeworld to defeat their platoon leader Chip Hazard. Archer is voiced by Gregg Berger. Tommy Lee Jones is the only actor who reprised his role as Chip Hazard.

Gameplay

Single-player

Players are equipped with a rapid-fire crossbow, which can receive new ammunition types, and which has various accuracies and strengths. Players can use turrets and battle-walkers. These are difficult to damage and can deal serious damage to enemies. Players can rescue fellow Gorgonites like Insaniac, who will attack the nearby Commando Elite.

Multiplayer

In multiplayer mode, players can play as either Archer or Chip Hazard. The gameplay is the same as single-player, only without allies and enemies. For Chip Hazard his default weapon is a rapid-fire pistol, which can receive new ammunition types.

There are two game modes in multiplayer mode: Frag Mode where a player must score five kills before the other player does so, and Flag Mode where a player must return all three flags to their respective base.

Soundtrack

The soundtrack for the game was composed by Michael Giacchino.
