Game developer Avalanche Studios has published on Tuesday a new video entitled "dev diary" for the popular video game "Just Cause 3." The game's new video which is said to highlight a player's freedom was released ahead of the slated launch next week. It was said that the video focuses on the game's proprietary engine and it includes some third-party tools such as the "Havok Destruction," a report from Gamespot said.
"The Just Cause franchise is known for its over-the-top action and is less grounded than other open-world games like Grand Theft Auto V or Watch Dogs. One segment in this new video shows how players can use the grappling hook while soaring through the skies in the new wingsuit, which wasn't featured in Just Cause 2," the report said.
Avalanche has also confirmed that "Just Cause 3," an open-world action game is expected to explore on a single-player mode. However, the company has clarified that there's also a possibility that a multiplayer mode will be introduced to the game.
"We did talk about it a lot. The modding community even created a multiplayer mod for Just Cause 2 that was super fun, really cool. The same way that Just Cause 2 was known as a beautiful sandbox in a giant open world, and it surprised many people that consoles could even do that, we wanted to have that same experience... with updated physics and player mechanics, and concentrate first and foremost in the main player," Game Director Roland Lesterlin told Gamespot in a separate interview.
Lesterlin explains that some of the game's social features which can be found in the present platforms have actually enabled players to share their experiences. He, however, pointed out that having a multiplayer mode is definitely an option which can be considered in the future.
"To be perfectly clear: Just Cause 3 will be available in 2015 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC. It will be distributed as a retail box and digital download. It is not a Free To Play game. It does not feature in-game micro transactions," Avalanche Studios said via its website.
