How co-op works

Two online players can run the complete Grand Chien campaign from a new or existing host save. They jointly recruit, equip, and deploy mercenaries, divide control during tactical turns, and coordinate sector travel, operations, militia training, defenses, inventory, dialogue choices, and campaign resources.

About this game

Jagged Alliance 3 puts you and a friend in charge of a mercenary outfit tasked with restoring order to the war-torn nation of Grand Chien. This turn-based tactical RPG blends deep strategic planning with cooperative squad command, letting two players share the challenge of outwitting the Legion's forces across a persistent campaign. Every firefight demands careful positioning, resource management, and joint decision-making as you liberate sectors and uncover the mystery of the missing president.

You recruit mercs with distinct personalities and skill sets, equip them for various combat roles, and execute turn-based engagements that reward patience and coordination. The co-op layer adds a second tactical mind to every ambush, flank, and overwatch setup, turning tense standoffs into shared problem-solving sessions. Conversations with locals, loot discoveries, and permadeath stakes keep the tension high across the entire playthrough.

Online co-op supports the full campaign, so both commanders share control over hiring, exploration, and battle tactics. Sessions become long-haul strategic partnerships rather than quick drop-in skirmishes, ideal for players who enjoy planning every move with a trusted partner.
