Mercenaries™ has revolutionized the world of 3rd-person action-shooters. Set in the near future and inspired by real world events, Mercenaries™ places you in the role of an elite bounty hunter covertly dispatched to a Korean peninsula that is swiftly plunging into anarchy.



Fight your way through sprawling, exquisitely rendered urban environments. Absolutely everything is interactive: if you can see it, you can shoot it, drive it, fly it, steal it or blow it up. Use wits as well as weapons to complete the open-ended, unscripted missions.

In another first for the genre, your actions have real consequences. An innovative reputation system records player actions - every trigger you pull, every decision you make influences how warring factions respond to you and determines your progress through the game.

"Mercenaries is what we play video games for - it's that simple."
