Hot diggity dawg! After years crawling the digital desert lower than a lizard, real-time tactical stealth murderer Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive now plays nicely on modern systems.

Publishers THQ Nordic last week released an update making the game support modern Windows along with Mac and Linux, to fix the problem of it crashing like a horse full of rotgut.

Desperados is a tip-top tactics ’em up about a rootin’ tootin’ squad of mercenaries combining their powers of distraction, evasion, exsanguination, and explosion on missions in the Wild West, similar to the Commandos games, and well worth a look – especially as it’s on sale now too.

For years, playing this game on modern systems involved downloading rando files off the Internet, installing a tool, and poking around with all sorts of settings. The update also rolled a mission from the demo into the game, closing a loop on those days when demos would often contain unique slices. Language selection options are in too. Decent update for a year-old game, that. And it’s still a decent game. Resident simulated man Tim Stone has praised it and our former Adam even once declared it one of the best stealth games.

Adam RPS in peace explained in Across beautifully drawn levels, the heroes of the piece move through a hit parade of Western locations and scenarios, sneaking by, shooting and subduing the outlaws who stand between them and their bounty. Explosives expert Sam Williams can plant a barrel of TNT as distraction or weapon, for example, and then gambler Kate O’Hara can use a mirror to direct just enough rays in its direction to light the fuse.

If you still have an old copy on CD and an optical drive to put it in? THQ Nordic have been good stewards for many of the games and brands they’ve nabbed the rights to, also updating games including Titan Quest , Darksiders , Sine Mora , and Red Faction Guerrilla in recent years.
