Doc McCoy was now presented in detail as a character of Desperados 3.
The Desperados Games Series
The Wild West tactics and strategy stealth game Desperados will have a new sequel in 2020. Recently another character, Doc McCoy, was introduced to the audience for this game. All known information about the western strategy game Desperados 3 can be found here.
German Version:
The first part of the series “Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive” was developed in 2001 by Spellbound for Infogrames / Atari. Similar to the Commandos series, which is also very popular, the player controls a group of characters with many different abilities in order to fulfill the quest goals on the isometric maps with very tactical procedures in numerous missions.
Desperados is more of a sneaky game, in most cases, you will only get to the goal with a stealthy approach and skillful use of the abilities of all Desperados. Aggressive rushes are possible, but rarely advisable.
Desperados 3 is developed by MiMiMi Games and published by THQ Nordic. It is expected to be released for PC on Steam and versions for PS4 and XBox One X consoles are also confirmed in the works. If the game will be released for Nintendo Switch, Mac or Linux is uncertain at the moment, an announcement has not been made yet.

Desperados 3 – Stealth strategy in the Wild West
In the previous parts of the Desperados series and also in the new sequel, Desperados 3, we play a group of Wild West “heroes”, who are not too gentle with their opponents themselves. Our group is led by bounty hunter John Cooper, who has assembled a gang of specialists to take out or catch crooks and gangsters, for a good fee of course.
We plan actions in advance, and then have them executed in real-time. Our opponents have cones of sight, can hear and let each other know their actions and can act as a team. The predecessors were especially known for their good opponent AI. So we have to try to stay undercover as long as possible and operate from ambush. Sneaking, disguising, deceiving, confusing and covering up traces is part of the job of a good desperado.
From an isometric perspective, we steer our group consisting of very individual figures, all of whom have very special abilities. The terrain of the mission, which character we use and how, and the timing of the approach play a very crucial role, which will decide on success or failure. Some gameplay can already be seen in the following Desperados 3 trailers.
Desperados 3 Release Date
An exact release date for the new chapter of the Desperados series is not yet available.

Desperados 3 Trailer
Desperados 3 Doc McCoy Character Trailer:
Doc McCoy was already involved in the earlier Desperados parts. After his medical training in Great Britain, he traveled across the Atlantic. As soon as he arrived, he was involuntarily recruited into the American Civil War. Since he could not stand the horror of war and its injustices, he deserted from the army and became a Gun for Hire.
He is a very good revolver shooter, with his scope he could shoot the eye of a fly, they say about him. But he is also nimble with a knife at the throat of his opponent and can furthermore throw his home-brewed poison and stun bombs very skillfully.
Desperados 3 Isabelle Moreau Character Trailer:
Isabelle Moreau and her cat are a very dangerous team. The Voodoo Priestess has very special abilities, which you would otherwise rather expect from magicians in fantasy settings. Not only can she send her cat out to irritate enemies, but she can also distract and confuse enemies with her voodoo arts in various occult ways, making them an easy victim for her strangler sling.
