You take control of a ragtag Band becoming a highly functional group of unlikely heroes and heroines. The very different strong personalities struggle to cooperate at first, but ultimately join forces to combine their distinctive specialties and challenge a seemingly superior foe. Hunted by ruthless bandits and corrupt lawmen, the desperados need to turn the tables with every mission. On an epic journey through 1870s USA and Mexico, the team will face incredibly difficult odds and must outsmart vastly outnumbering gang on their mission to track down a nemesis whilst derailing a relentless corporate Tycoon, the five distinctive characters use a wide array of skills to infiltrate, spy, sabotage, elude, steal, abduct, deviate, assassinate, blow Stuff up. And as a last resort: shoot 'end down. Combine your specialists to overcome tough challenges in many different ways. Plan your moves wisely and execute them perfectly in real time to sneak past your enemies while remaining undetected. Desperados III is the game I never knew I needed. A perfect blend of satisfying Wild West tropes, a surprisingly compelling story, and an endlessly-gratifying tactical layer that will make you feel like the architect of a bandit-murdering Rube Goldberg machine. With guns. I fell in love qith it, I wound up getting ir for my Xbox One collection also!

It is not Red Dead Redemption, but that’s not a knock. Just a warning for buyers thinking it’s Saint’s Row to Rockstar’s GTA. Awesome game. Great story line, easy to figure out control scheme, good sound design. I play this on a 32” t.v. and didn’t really have any trouble seeing what was going on. American old west games are pretty rare in video games, let alone an rts like this. Highly recommended!

Very different than most mainstream games out there. As a fan of the western genre and the Red Dead games, I picked it up on sale. Sat on my shelf for a while and finally got around to playing it. It's a tough learning curve but once I figured out the mechanics and that you have to take it slow (can't go around blasting away). It was really satisfying figuring out enemy patterns and getting through each section of the levels.

I've been playing this on PS Plus and decided to purchase it in the event it's removed from the service. This is a laid back RTS game for me. Obeserve, Plan, Execute. If you're looking for a face paced shooter this isn't it. Youtube the gameplay and decide from there.

It’s not Red Dead, but it’s really good still. Graphics are good, action is good, the difference between the two are the map. Obviously Red Dead has the enormous playground to explore, but this entry fills the void nicely for those wanting a western.

Great old western game. Great graphics and story. You can’t compare it to redemption game because that is a really awesome game, but this comes close to it.

This game is cool just not sure it’s worth the $60 price. You definitely need at least a 55” preferably bigger to enjoy though. The characters and scenery are so tiny. Patience is also needed. A stealth game indeed.

Desperados 3 is a prequel to a long dormant stealth tactics series, but do not let that scare you off. This is a perfect starting point for all players no matter your familiarity with the series or genre. If you are a fan of stealth games DO NOT MISS OUT. It's a great time.

Great Wild West story real-time tactics game

Expected the game to be similar to red dead redemption however its a very different game. Desperados III is a real-time tactics game similar to commandos or sudden strike for comparison. Its still a very fun game with great gameplay, graphics and audio. If you like Wild West stories in a real-time tactics game then this is the game for you. Plays great on the PS4 and is also backwards compatible to PS5 if you have one.

This game is great tactical western fun. Only complaint is the difficulty of the controls. If you have the option to play with a keyboard and mouse I’d do that.
