Why you might like it

  • Brought the classic Jagged Alliance turn-based squad tactics into a persistent multiplayer setting, letting fans of the franchise build up mercenary companies and compete against real players.
  • Alliance-based 'Warzone' company vs. company play added a strategic layer on top of individual tactical battles, rewarding coordinated play with a group.
  • Later relaunched independently as 'Reloaded' by Cliffhanger Productions after leaving original publisher gamigo, with rebalanced economy and no paywall grind — a genuine attempt to fix the original's free-to-play issues.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • Servers were shut down for good on November 30, 2018, after the developer said the game had been costing more to run than it earned — there is no way to play it today.
  • It never added true live co-op play; multiplayer was limited to PvP and alliance-level Warzone company management rather than playing missions together in real time.
  • If you want the Jagged Alliance tactical experience today, the mainline single-player series (including 2023's Jagged Alliance 3) is the actively supported option, not this discontinued online spin-off.
