HISTORICAL BATTLES



The Standard edition includes five singleplayer campaigns, which are based on the historical events of the 17th and 18th centuries. Liberate Turin from the French garrison, overcome Ottomans in the Battle of Khotyn, defeat English rebels in the Battle of Edgehill, defend Mogilev against Polish troops, and establish your superiority at la Manche!

Besides the epic battles on land, you are welcome to build the greatest armada the world has seen and dominate your enemies at sea.

CLASSIC GAMEPLAY



Send your peasants down the mines, chop forests for wood, and don’t forget to manage the crops. Keep an eye on your town's prosperity and the field victories simultaneously, as if you are the true eminent hetman! Dive into the Golden Age of the RTS genre and explore infinite tactical options, including buildings construction and resource production, a broad selection of various units, and the landscape influence.

STRATEGIC CHALLENGE



Once the singleplayer campaigns are completed, advance to conquer the title of the Greatest General in the multiplayer! Up to 8 commanders can compete for the victory or forge alliances against an AI opponent. Do you have what it takes to outsmart the adversaries?

This game sucks. Cossacks Back to War was much better.
Recommended Sep 14, 2026
★★★★★ Absolutely the best strategy game ever made! Cossacks 3 is, without a doubt, one of the most fun and addictive strategy games I’ve ever played. The scale of the battles, the huge armies, the tactical decisions, and the feeling of building your economy and then going to war are just incredible. What I love most is how competitive it can be. Every game feels different, and there’s always something to improve — your economy, your army composition, your positioning, or your strategy. When hundreds (or even thousands!) of units clash on the battlefield, it’s an amazing feeling. It’s fun, challenging, competitive, and incredibly satisfying. I can spend hours playing and still want “just one more game.” If you love strategy games, you absolutely need to play Cossacks 3. For me, this is the best strategy game ever. 10/10 — Highly recommended!

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
