Jagged Alliance 2: Reloaded Announced for 2011

by Jeff Mattas, Aug 19, 2010 6:00pm PDT

Hot on the heels of the announcement of Jagged Alliance Online, German publisher bitComposer Games has lifted the curtain on an updated version of Jagged Alliance 2 they've been developing.

The sequel, dubbed Jagged Alliance 2: Reloaded, will sport updated isometric 3D graphics, an improved UI, and an expanded tutorial for Jagged Alliance newbies. The series' beloved combination of turn-based strategy and role-playing gameplay. Check out the screenshots for a few visual comparisons of old the old 1999-version of JA2 and bitComposer's updated hotness.

Like its predecessor, Jagged Alliance 2: Reloaded seems a natural fit for the PC when it comes out sometime "next year." That said, targeted platform(s) and pricing have yet to be disclosed.

And yes, we're still waiting for Jagged Alliance 3.

Tbh, I think the 3D version looks less appealing than the original 2D graphics. The atmosphere - at least in these screenshots - is completely gone.

And I wonder if they left the essential grid-gameplay intact. Without it, a JA game just wouldn't work.

Cool! But looks like they're trying to put it in the middle east with changing the textures to sand! Looking forward to it either way, but I hope it retains the latin vibe :D

I'm assuming they're reusing the audio dialogue files from JA2 proper. Which by all means is all they need, it is perfect.
