- Desperados Turns 20 Years Old, gets Video-Special and Franchise Sale - 20 April 2021
Howdy Birthday: Desperados Turns 20 Years Old, gets Video-Special and Franchise Sale Vienna, Austria / Munich, Germany, April 20th, 2021: 20 years ago, on April 20th, 2001 Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive was released by developer Spellbound Entertainment, known today as Black Forest Games. Fast forward to present day, and the award-winning and critically acclaimed Desperados III (now developed by Mimimi Games) was honored in the past week with the "Best German Game" award at the German Game Awards 2021. To celebrate the 20 year anniversary, we've created a special documentary, highlighting how Desperados came to be. This includes insights into why it wasn't called Death Valley, why a confederate General, raising zombie soldiers to continue the American Civil War didn't play a role, and why Jon Bon Jovi wasn't part of the first trailer.

- Free Desperados III update lets you switch characters, adds makeshift level editor - 9 December 2020
Rock-hard, cowboy-themed tactical stealth game Desperados III has just got a free update that lets you mix and match characters on missions to shake up the gameplay, as well as adding "level editing cheats" to design your own wild west missions. Developer Mimimi Productions and publisher THQ Nordic have announced in a press release that on December 9 the game's new 'bounty mode' would let players choose freely from the five playable characters on "almost every major mission" - rather than simply controlling whichever dusty-booted desperados are pre-selected for that chapter. The idea is that you can now pick out characters with abilities particularly suited for each of the game's pretty challenging missions and make things a little easier - or deliberately take a team hopelessly ill-equipped for the job to upgrade your challenge to near-masochistic levels. The level editing cheats, mean…
- Desperados III Adds Bounty Mode and "Level Editor Light" In Free Update - 9 December 2020
Vienna, Austria / Munich, Germany, December 9th, 2020: Desperados III gets another free update - the Bounty Mode is now part of the game and lets you choose, which of the five Desperados you want to play in almost every major mission.* Either you make it easier for yourself or spice the mission up a bit - or you try to finish the game with Hector all over the place! * similar to the Baron's Challenges, this mode will unlock during the second chapter Also, the newly activated "Level Editing Cheats" allow you to create your own mission setups and share the savegames with all other Desperados III players. Basically, it's a level editor light. By using the cheat codes, players can easily clean a map and then spawn all types of enemies in any location on the map and have fun by placing different objects throughout the level. You want to use 20 dynamite crates and 10 Gatling guns in Flagstone…

- Desperados 3 review - sneaking around the Wild West - 12 October 2020
It's technically a prequel to the original Desperados, but Desperados III is also the spiritual successor to Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. If you played Mimimi Productions' previous stealth-action game, then you are far more prepared for this Spaghetti Western romp than you would be by knowing about the future adventures of protagonist John Cooper. You'd also probably have your expectations set pretty high, considering Shadow Tactics was a landmark entry into a genre that's become more and more niche through the passing of time. But rest assured: Desperados III is a worthy successor to Mimimi's classic. Desperados III is a stealth strategy or tactics game, but it also resembles more a crossword or sudoku puzzle to me. When your party is tucked in a bush, watching guards trot in predictable yet tightly regimented patrols, assessing the battlefield feels like scanning rows or colu…

- Desperados 3 is now on Mac and Linux, and its first DLC is out - 2 September 2020
Here’s a fun computing fact for you: the Linux term root is derived from the cowboy term rootin’ tootin’ , because the console cowboys who clip-clopped on their mechanical keyboards like a bucking bronco and listened to Fields Of The Nephilim would cry “Yeehaw!” and wave their leather Stetsons when they got system admin rights – a real rootin’ tootin’ time. How fitting, then, that wonderful Wild West squad tactics game Desperados 3 today launched a Linux version. A Mac version arrived too, so even those city slickers might be tempted by the cowboy lifestyle. The first paid DLC mission is out now too, plus a challenge mission that’s free for all players.

In the end, Doc McCoy is free! It may sound like the beginning of an epic joke, but is indeed the description of one of the four new Baron's Challenges, added to Desperados III for free.
