THQ Nordic and Haemimont Games have spoken more about their upcoming PC game Jagged Alliance 3, specifically about bringing the series back after 20 years since the release of Jagged Alliance 2.
In a new dev diary, the developers at Haumimont Games said that when creating a successor, the most mentioned wish they heard from fans was simply: “Don’t f*** it up!”
“It’s a tightrope walk to make sure the game feels familiar to those who loved both, Jagged Alliance 1 & Jagged Alliance 2 but also brings new improvements to the table.”
“To make sure to get that vision right, who’s better to ask for guidance than one of the original creators of the franchise? That’s why developer Haemimont Games has been working with Ian Currie, designer of and responsible for the original concept of Jagged Alliance. Ian’s been involved in the Jagged Alliance 3 project since day one.”
The devs say that the upcoming game will stay true to the series’ most well-known elements and in the new Legacy Trailer, Ian Currie and the Haemimont Games team give us a taste of what makes it special. You can see the trailer below:
Jagged Alliance 3 is a tactical RPG with an emphasis on strategic campaign management, a huge world to explore, diverse side-quests, in-depth tactical combat, and beloved characters.
The game will be coming to PC although an exact launch date is yet to be confirmed.
