THQ Nordic has finally announced that MiMiMi Productions’ strategy sequel Desperados III is saddling up for release, and will arrive on PC and console platforms June 16.

As a quick refresher, Desperados III is the second sequel to the early ’00s PC titles devised by Spellbound Entertainment. Essentially a wild west take on the Commandos series, Desperados puts players in control of a team of well-meaning outlaws, as they undertake several a campaign of robbery, sabotage, and espionage, among other shady dealings.


Each member of the team has a specific set of skills, and players must utilise of these sidewinders in tandem in order to get through each mission without a belly full o’ lead. Precise planning, timing, and synchronicity are required, with a quick eye for adaptability should things go a little sideways. The trailer above gives us a look at ice-cool team leader John Cooper.

Desperados III launches June 16 on PS4, PC, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. A $120 collector’s edition is available to pre-order from the game’s official website.
