THQ Nordic and its developer Mimimi Productions revealed today that a closed beta test for Desperados III will run from July 9 to 21.
Gamers who would like to participate in the said beta can now sign up here. According to THQ, only 500 applications will be accepted.
Here’s a quick overview of the game, via THQ Nordic:
The Wild West. A place where the law is made by those with a gun in their hands, and is enforced by the henchmen at their command. A place where death is no stranger and the undertakers are working overtime… especially when people start playing Desperados III.
This real-time tactics game, developed by German game studio Mimimi (who earned their spurs with the critically acclaimed title Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun), lets players command a band of Desperados led by fan-favorite gunslinger John Cooper, who’s hunting down his nemesis.
Heavily inspired by the first game of the franchise, Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive, Desperados III will allow the player to approach each mission with a wide variety of different solutions and routes. As the player’s gang will always be outnumbered, only smart use of both the environment and each Desperado’s unique character skills will guarantee a victorious outcome.
Desperados III closed beta test will be available for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
