About Desperados III

About this game

Head to the ruthless Wild West and prepare for story-driven, hardcore tactical stealth action with your Desperados III Steam PC key.

WHAT IS DESPERADOS III
Desperados 3 is the long-awaited prequel to the beloved classic Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive, in which John Cooper will join forces with the runaway bride Kate, the shady hitman Doc McCoy, the giant trapper Hector, and Isabelle, a mysterious lady from New Orleans.

On Cooper’s quest for redemption, his adventures lead him and his gang from rural towns, over swamps and riverbanks, and finally to a dramatic showdown worthy of Wild West legends.

PLAN OR FAIL
You'll need to play smart if you want to succeed in this cruel world. A good plan can make the difference between survival and finding yourself at the business end of a pistol.

UNIQUE ROSTER
Cooper is a drifter, gunslinger, and natural leader who can kill quietly with a knife, or take out multiple foes with his trademark revolvers; while strongman Hector carries a giant bear trap and can slay the toughest opponents with his trusty axe. Cold-blooded bounty hunter McCoy likes to be methodical with lures, knockout gas, poison syringes and a custom long-range pistol.

Killing folks with a discreet hidden gun, Kate can fool almost any man with the right outfit - and then there is this mysterious woman from New Orleans named Isabelle… but you'll have to wait to find out more about her!

Use all of these team members to their advantages and combine their special skills to overcome each tough challenge in your own style.

YOUR BATTLE, YOUR STORY
Experience true freedom of choice with countless different ways to overcome any obstacle, as you choose between non-lethal and deadly attacks, stealth and blazing guns. Feel free to adjust the game to your playstyle with various difficulty settings and special replay challenges!

WHO WILL BE THE VICTOR
Prove if you've really got the guts and tactics to survive in the Wild West in Showdown Mode, which allows you to pause the game anytime and react to ambushes or surprise attacks.
