The western-inspired real-time tactics game Desperados 3 received a major update yesterday. The update adds tons of new content including the first part of the previously announced Money for the Vultures expansion pack. New Baron’s Challenges have also been added and support for Mac and Linux is here. The update also brought a whole lot of bug fixes. However, all of this comes at a cost. You will have to download 13GB of game files if you want to keep playing Desperados 3. While it's not the biggest updates nowadays, it's certainly not the smallest either.
Mimimi Studios also released a new trailer for the DLC, which you can watch above. The complete patch notes for Update 1.04 are mentioned below and on the official site.
