News South Park: Snow Day! Forecasts Multiplayer Madness in March on PS5
School's out
South Park: Snow Day! takes a break from the turn-based RPGs we've come to know and love, mixing things up and switching to a 3D engine. We got a new trailer showing off more multiplayer gameplay and locking in a 26th March release date on PS5. The story of the New Kid continues as a massive blizzard has thrown the normally peaceful...
News South Park: Snow Day! Still Not an RPG in Four Player Co-op Gameplay
Change can be difficult
Off the back of two excellent South Park RPGs, Obsidian's Stick of Truth and Ubisoft's Fractured But Whole, South Park: Snow Day! from developer Question is instead a cooperative multiplayer game. It ditches the 2D art aesthetic popularised by the show and adopted for the previous games for a less impressive but more...
News South Park: Snow Day! Is Not the PS5 Game You Were Expecting
Snow way
Back when THQ Nordic announced it was bringing South Park back to consoles, many fans perhaps expected another RPG in the vein of Stick of Truth. However, that’s not what developer Question has cooked up: this is instead a 3D four-player co-op game. Needless to say, we’re not all together convinced. “Join Cartman, Stan, Kyle, and...
News New South Park Game Teased by THQ Nordic

A new South Park game has been teased by THQ Nordic.

We've embedded the tease above. Absolutely...
News A New South Park Game Is Coming, and It's 3D
Trey Parker and Matt Stone helming new project
South Park certainly has a distinct visual style, and it's one that's not translated well into the realm of video games in the past. In early attempts to turn the purposely low-tech world into something interactive, the universe's felt figures have been replaced with 3D models, and it hasn't really...

News South Park: The Stick of Truth Steps Out of the Fractured But Whole in February
A Kenny move
Previously only available as a pre-order bonus with sequel South Park: The Fractured But Whole, Ubisoft has announced that South Park: The Stick of Truth will launch as a standalone PlayStation 4 game on 13th February.

Round Up Is the New South Park Game Fractured or Whole?
Twerk it
It’s taken an eternity to release, but Ubisoft’s finally shifted that pocket of wind and butt burped South Park: The Fractured but Whole into the hands of critics. The lingering question, then: is it a peach or a ponger? We’ve pointed our Stick of Truth at several sites who managed to get early access to the title; we’re not part of...
News Your Fart Can Be Featured in South Park: The Fractured But Whole
Botty business
In perhaps the most perfect but repulsive South Park: The Fractured But Whole marketing stunt yet, Ubisoft is running a competition that could see your, er, fart added to the game. As part of a The Voice spoof site, you’ll be able to upload your own raspberry ripple, with your target being to take your trump global. It’s a...

Trey bien
Long-awaited South Park role-playing game The Fractured but Whole finally has a PlayStation 4 release date: 17th October.

News South Park: The Fractured But Whole Kills Kenny Later Than Anticipated
Trey-king their time
It's no surprise given how little media the release has received, but South Park: The Fractured But Whole has been delayed yet again. The title was originally due during publisher Ubisoft's current fiscal year (which is scheduled to end 31st March, 2017), but in a press release for its latest earnings report the company has...
News South Park: The Fractured but Whole Clenches Its Cheeks Till 2017
Stinker
It's that time of the year where release dates get chopped and changed, as publishers realise that releasing their wares amid the holiday rush perhaps isn't the best plan. South Park: The Fractured but Whole is the latest casualty, as Ubisoft has pushed the licensed role-playing game out of December and into Q1 2017. "The development team...
Gamescom 2016 South Park: The Fractured But Whole Stinks
Farty pooper
Curse you intrepid marketing teams – you've got an article out of us. Ubisoft's been banging on about the Nosulus Rift in South Park: The Fractured But Whole for days now, but we thought that it was a joke. Turns out the French publisher's only gone and manufactured one of the bloody things, allowing you to sniff your own whiffs as...
E3 2015 South Park: The Fractured But Whole Is Swearing Up a Storm on PS4
Pre-orders are available now
Bethesda did a great job kicking off its presser with some gory, gutsy footage of DOOM - but we think that Ubisoft may have taken the cake by pulling out Matt Stone and Trey Parker. The comedic duo took to the stage to announce that last year's South Park: The Stick of Truth will be getting a sequel, which will delve...
Review Zen Pinball 2: South Park Pinball (PlayStation 4)
Sweet
Building up its repertoire of table tie-ins, Zen Studios has bizarrely added comedy hit South Park to its post-release Zen Pinball 2 purchasing roster. With two tables on offer in this double pack, does the satirical NSFW show make a successful transition to the more traditional silver ball structure? The staple Super-Sweet Pinball table is...
Review South Park: The Stick of Truth (PlayStation 3)
The Elder Trolls
Licensed video game adaptations are rarely the stuff of legend. Films are easily the worst offenders, as you could probably list the number of decent attempts on one hand – although television properties have played host to a selection of stinkers as well. As such, we were cautious when we first caught wind [Not that kind – Ed]...
News Sorry Europe, You Won't Be Probing Any Bottoms in South Park: The Stick of Truth
Ubisoft cuts content from TV tie-in
A game based on controversial cartoon South Park was never going to toe the line, so it’s unsurprising to learn that South Park: The Stick of Truth has been censored in Europe. BT.com spotted a document suggesting that seven scenes had been removed from the title, which publisher Ubisoft has since confirmed. The...
News Settle into South Park with 13 Minutes of Stick of Truth Gameplay
"Welcome to the Kingdom of Kupa Keep"
Finally, after almost three years, South Park: The Stick of Truth is ready to be released. The game's not had the best time since its announcement back in 2011. Developer Obsidian – a veteran when it comes to RPGs – has faced design delays and redundancies, as well as original publisher THQ going bankrupt...
