News Just Cause 4's Final DLC Adds a Hoverboard, Gravity Gun, and More to Rico's Arsenal
Danger Rising
Yes, they're still updating Just Cause 4. The bombastic sequel arrived right at the tail end of 2018, but it feels as though most have moved on from the open world action title. Still, for those still paying attention, the third and final DLC has just gotten some details. It's called Danger Rising, and as you can see in the above...
News Oh Boy, Now There's Going to Be a Just Cause Movie
Just 'cos
If there's any game series that's trying its hardest to ape every action movie trope in the book, it's Just Cause. Each entry has upped the ante in terms of explosive action, with Just Cause 4 introducing extreme weather events at the end of last year. Probably the weakest aspect of all the games is their mostly nonsense narrative, so...

Weathering the storm
The last major game release of 2018 is Just Cause 4, which launches on PS4 today. In terms of critical reception, it's doing fairly well for itself so far, amassing a metascore of 75 (for the PC release, anyway) and receiving praise for its new weather system and improvisational combat. We'll deliver our very own verdict soon,...
News This Just Cause 4 Live Action Trailer Is Brilliantly Bad
"Our fuel tank placement is a problem"
Occasionally, live action trailers are a good idea, but this new ad for Just Cause 4 has to be one of the best worst examples.

News Just Cause 4's Cinematic Trailer Turns Up the Volume
Is this loud enough for you?
Just Cause 4’s cinematic trailer is the equivalent of an email written entirely in capital letters.

News Just Cause 4, Like Most Games, Has an Expansion Pass

News Just Cause 4's Story Trailer Has More Explosions than Story
As you'd expect
Look, Just Cause has never been about telling an engaging story. The plots of previous games have loosely tied together various reasons for blowing sh*t up, and we don't expect anything different from Just Cause 4. Heck, going by this "story" trailer, the game itself doesn't even expect anything different. As the headline says,...
News New Just Cause 4 Trailer Is a Whistle-Stop Tour of Solis
Varied open world detailed
One thing the Just Cause games have in common is their big, beautiful open worlds, and Just Cause 4 looks to be no different.

Mainly inspired by South America, Solis is a...

News Just Cause 4 Wants to Be the Best Open World Sandbox Ever
Lofty ambitious
Just Cause 4, like Dying Light 2, got lost in the E3 2018 shuffle somewhat.

News PS4 Pro Boost Mode Makes Just Cause 3's Frame Rate Slightly Less Shite
But it's still far from perfect
Just Cause 3, for all of its fun, free-form chaos, runs like garbage on a standard PlayStation 4.

Given its particularly poor performance, many have been wondering whether the PS4 Pro's Boost Mode can help...
News Just Cause 3 Is Borderline Broken on PS4 Right Now

News Just Cause 3 Is the One Game That Doesn't Really Need a CG Trailer
You can do all this in the game anyway
Strikes us as a bit weird, this: Just Cause 3 has a new trailer, and most of it is CG. Now, we're not totally against CG trailers - they can be downright stunning when done right - but let's face it: Just Cause 3 certainly isn't the type of game that needs one. Rico Rodriguez's latest adventure is already...

Off the chain
Just Cause 3 received a suitably insane, and mercifully brief, trailer at Sony's pre-Tokyo Game Show conference today.

Grappling hooks and explosions: the video game
Just Cause 2 was good, stupid fun. It's only fitting, then, that Just Cause 3 should take that same absurdity to a new level.

News Just Cause 3's First Trailer Is Far More Serious Than It Needs to Be
Burnin' for you
We're not entirely sure how we feel about moody cinematic trailers.
