Are the campaigns listed anywhere?

Not in detail no..........

It's been a long time since Cossacks laid siege to historical warfare--well over a decade, in fact--but it looks to make a triumphant march back to home computers on September 20. Billed as a remake of the classic game, Cossacks 3 will retain the elements that set apart the RTS franchise and combine them with modern 3D graphics.

You'll construct buildings, gather raw materials, and recruit units as you strategize for success in combat, making sure to remember the battlefield and how the landscape will affect your efforts. You'll be able to take control of twelve nations and 70 unit types, and over 100 research points and 140 historical buildings are available for your war effort.

You can take command in five historic single-player campaigns, or challenge other human opponents in multiplayer matches for up to eight players. Not only will your armies march against each other on land, you can also build armadas for epic naval combat.

Cossacks 3 will launch on September 20 for PC. Developer GSC Game World created both the original titles and this new entry, but they are perhaps better known to gamers today as the creators of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. franchise.


The one thing that concerns me is why is the price only 20$ USD, most games at that price point are usually early access, unfinished, buggy or a combination of the three. I was expecting it to be around 40$

Thanks for posting Achilles...I don't know why the developers would not post some campaign details.

Following the strong Steam's administration recommendations we will not open digital pre-order for Cossacks 3. Instead of this we will give planned pre-order bonus as an Early Bird Bonus for those who run Cossacks 3 within the first two weeks of the game's release.
Early Bird Bonus will contain:
- Additional mini campaign for single player.
- 2 unique mercenary units that could be hired from the every nation's Diplomatic Centre.
- A special Early Bird Badge visible in multiplayer shell.

Besides that we would like to offer the Digital Deluxe Edition that will contain 4 post-launch DLC's adding in total 6 single player campaigns, 12 additional single player missions and 8 historical multiplayer battles, as well as Original Soundtrack in lossless format.

As a free DLC all the players will receive 8 additional playable nations with the unique music main themes.
Cossacks 3 will be released on September 20th 2016


Also a couple new screenies! Above^^^^

Really waiting for this one!

Played a lot of Cossacks over the years and I loved the setting and look. I am also very interested in the naval aspect of the game.

One of the first reviews I ever wrote was for the first Cossacks over at WG. The add ins above make this very tempting to pre-order.

I still remember the Russian spearmen Zerg rush.

The biggest problem with the series was the totally absent unit AI. The player had to micromanage the entire battlefield because units would not open fire unless directly controlled and ordered to do so on a specific target. I hope they fixed this.

And the AI doesn't use the formations properly so it doesn't turn into nice line battles. Looking forward to what's in store for this iteration.
