Jagged Alliance 3 Announced

At this point, creating a worthy successor to Jagged Alliance 2 has become akin to some martial arts movie where the student keeps failing and the master keeps telling him to try again. And so, having whet our appetites for some mercenary tactics with their recent giveaway, THQ Nordic now brings us an announcement trailer for Jagged Alliance 3.

This particular incarnation of the tactical mercenary RPG will be developed by Haemimont Games, the team behind Victor Vran and Surviving Mars. Right off the bat, we’re promised rich tactical combat, a large pool of mercenaries, an open RPG structure, and even online co-op. Here’s the trailer:

And while we don’t have a proper release date for this project just yet, we can already check out its official description:

Grand Chien, a nation of rich natural resources and deep political divides, is thrown into chaos when the elected president goes missing and a paramilitary force known as “The Legion” seizes control of the countryside. Now, the President’s family has pulled together all their resources, including an arrangement with the powerful Adonis corporation, to hire a group of skilled mercenaries tasked with finding the President and bringing order back to the country.

In Jagged Alliance 3, select from a huge cast of mercenaries all with their own unique personalities, quirks, and backstories. Then go out and explore Grand Chien as you meet new people, earn money, grow your team, and ultimately make your own decisions that will decide the country’s fate.
