What sets Going Commando apart is its weapon upgrade system, where each firearm grows more powerful and transforms into a new form through repeated use in combat. This progression gives players a reason to experiment with their full arsenal rather than relying on a single weapon.

Players attack, dodge, and cast spells instantly, making every encounter feel physical and immediate.

Pandemic Studios built sprawling outdoor arenas that fill with enemy units, friendly troops, and explosive ground skirmishes, giving each mission a strong sense of wartime scale. The variety of playable vehicles and the size of battles set this title apart from other licensed Star Wars games of that era.
