7,62 Hard Life

Set in the fictional country of Algeira, the game puts you in command of a mercenary team caught up in a conflict. You can pursue the main story and side quests, including a route that lets you finish without joining either side.

Explore locations, meet non-player characters, and direct your team in real-time combat with the ability to pause and issue commands. Weapons and equipment are central to preparing for encounters, while quests and encounters shape how your campaign unfolds.

Hard Life adds 25 locations, around 30 characters, more than 100 story quests, and over 1,000 items, including 130 weapons. Settings let you tailor elements such as enemy numbers, Iron Man mode, hunger and thirst, transport, and how much money traders have.

Players who enjoy the game often highlight its unusual real-time tactical combat, extensive weapon selection, and depth, with some saying its systems keep them coming back. Views are mixed: many reviews also describe crashes and other frustrations that can interrupt play, and some criticize the controls or added launcher.
