Publisher THQ Nordic will release Desperados III in the summer. The tactical wild west game will be released for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. The game is similar in gameplay to the first installment from 2001 and the games from the Commandos series.

THQ Nordic shows the character Doc McCoy in a new trailer. The publisher reports that the game will be released in the summer, but does not mention a specific date yet. Desperados III was announced in August 2018, when it was said that the game would be released sometime in 2019. Even then, no release date was mentioned.

Nordic Games has owned the rights to Desperados since 2013. They were bought from Atari. The first game in the series, Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive, was released in 2001. The game came out a few years after Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines and has similar gameplay.

According to the makers, the new game is strongly inspired by the first part. The German developer Mimimi Games is responsible for the game. That studio also made Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun.
