Cossacks 3 Finally Lands on Linux

BY Ekianjo June 21, 2017 Leave a Comment

After the Windows release back in September 2016, Cossacks 3 is finally released on Linux on Steam. Since we don’t have so many RTS on the platform at the time, I thought it was worth mentionning. The game sells at… Continue Reading →
