Finally there’s an action-packed sandbox game on the horizon that’s bigger, badder and possibly better than Grand Theft Auto V!There’s no denying the past two Just Cause games were fun, but not extraordinary, compared to their open-world action packed peers such as Grand Theft Auto and Saints Row.
But that’s about to change. If you thought Far Cry 4’s sandbox of rampaging elephants, Himalayan hijinks and tuk-tuks doing drive-bys was a bit odd, then prepare yourself for something very special and utterly ridiculous…
BIGGER THAN GTA V !
The game world is massive, with roughly 400 square miles to explore about four times the size of GTA V! Our hero Rico Rodriguez gets about this vast Mediterranean expanse with ease, skydiving, BASE jumping and gliding across the giant map with his wingsuit as he pleases.
WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON?
As with past incarnations, Rodriguez a hero by any other name is sent in to overthrow a well-armed dictator with a vice-like grip over the fictional locale of Medici. In many respects it sounds a lot like Far Cry 4, only with a hell of a lot more guns, explosions, and destruction than anything seen before.
GRAPPLE HOOK AT WILL !
Previously in Just Cause, Rico could attach just one object to another with his grappling hook. But the developers have scrapped that limitation, letting players do whatever they want. So now you can merrily rope bad guys to oil drums and then attach them to helicopters. And when you get bored, you pull everything together into a maelstrom of explosive chaos. Because... why the hell not?
MORE ACTION THAN HOLLYWOOD!
Just Cause 3 lays the action on thick and the sandbox shenanigans don’t ever look like slowing down. You can ride Lamborghinis off cliff faces (below), run on the wings of an aeroplane, firing bazookas and hijack fighter jets in mid-air . It makes Michael Bay movies look like Downton Abbey.
