Jagged Alliance 3 was first announced way back in 2004 when Russian studio MiST Land South was supposed to develop the game. A new gameplay trailer has been released to show off what's in store. That's the date the eagerly anticipated Jagged Alliance 3 launches, marking almost 25 years since the last numbered game in the series arrived. You can play the same battle multiple times and have dramatically different experiences, even if your plan remains unchanged.Something to look forward to: Fans of turn-based tactics games should mark July 14 in their diaries. Mines, a hidden enemy, a jammed gun, some foul weather or some misfortune courtesy of the gods of RNG ensure that you won’t get too comfortable.

Jagged Alliance 3 might be a dense, flexible tactics game where planning and precision are demanded, but it absolutely loves to throw those plans into disarray. A miraculous headshot finally ended the carnage, and somehow my mercs walked away with only near-fatal injuries. There was shouting, plus screaming and threats. Bullets pinged off rocks as shots missed their targets. Someone thought it would be a good idea to toss a molotov into the mix. Another panicked, tried to flee and, of course, stepped on another mine. One of my squad went berserk, ran out of cover and just started spraying bullets. Then my mechanic stepped on a mine.Ĭhaos took hold.

One turn in, half of the opposition were dead. Several goons were grouped together, which was handy for my shotgun-wielding medic. Instead, they found themselves in a minefield surrounded by foes. My squad of mercs were enjoying a day at the beach, following up on intel that an explosives expert was there.
