GoG.com continues to release classic games owned and/or published by Atari. Today the DRM-free PC game download site has added Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive, the Wild West themed tactical-strategy game from developer Spellbound Entertainment that was first released back in 2001.

While Western themed games seem to be making a bit of a comeback, the setting wasn't as popular back when the original Desperados was first released. Set in 1881 in a fictional town near the Mexican border, the game features you controlling a squad of cowboys going after a gang who has been robbing trains in or near the town. Each squad member has some different abilities; for example one team member can use TNT well while another is equiped with Gatling guns. Desperados is now on sale on GoG.com for just $5.99.
