'Jagged Alliance: Flashback' Gets Early Access Update, Release Date - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Sept. 4, 2014 @ 6:13 p.m. PDT

Based on the popular Jagged Alliance series, Jagged Alliance: Flashback is not just a reboot, but a reset that returns the franchise to the tactical turn-based action of the original games.

Set in the mid-1980s on the Caribbean Island of San Christobal, Jagged Alliance: Flashback transports players back in time to the cold war era. They are to experience the events surrounding the foundation of A.I.M. the international mercenary organization. A destabilizing coup d’état establishes a powerful socialist regime. A hard-line fanatic U.S.S.R. General seizes the opportunity to establish a military base right under the nose of the U.S. Under the secret orders of the CIA, players must re-stabilize the balance of power in the region, restore the democratic government of San Christobal and drive out the U.S.S.R. presence by any means necessary.

Gameplay features will emphasize the core pillars that made the original games great: deep strategy, thrilling action and character RPG elements.

Developer Full Control announced the official launch date for Jagged Alliance: Flashback and also revealed more details on the new Tactical Overload update for the game in Early Access, which enhances the game’s tactical combat.

Jagged Alliance: Flashback Tactical Overload update features:

  • Melee Combat
  • Stealth & Hearing System
  • Quickslots
  • Interrupts & View Cones
