Just Cause 3 is an open-world action-adventure game set in the fictional Mediterranean republic of Medici. Players assume the role of Rico Rodriguez, a skilled operative on a mission to overthrow the oppressive regime of General Di Ravello. With its vast open-world environment, players have the freedom to explore diverse landscapes, including lush forests, sun-soaked beaches, and towering mountains. The game's signature feature is its over-the-top action and destruction, as players utilize Rico's grappling hook, parachute, and arsenal of weapons to wreak havoc on enemy forces and infrastructure. From high-speed chases to explosive stunts, Just Cause 3 offers adrenaline-pumping gameplay and endless opportunities for creative chaos. With its stunning visuals, dynamic weather effects, and exhilarating gameplay, Just Cause 3 delivers an immersive and thrilling experience that keeps players engaged from start to finish.



Just Cause 3 is aesthetically very pleasing and looks amazing on a good computer system and with maximum graphical settings and it makes the game as almost perfect, even if it does have some problems. The problems are mostly revolving around running the game, coming when you have low computer specifications such as a bad graphics card or a bad computer processing unit. Its overall a simple(ish) game and its quite easy to learn and to start playing and the design is very user friendly. The game itself teaches you how to play and gives you all of the key strokes that are needed for different movement options, such as if you are in a car it tells you that you can press WASD for the usual movement keys like forward, right, left and back and then it gives you the option of spacebar for hand break like a normal car. Its something very similar with the jets in the game, there is an always available button that can help show you what button does what in movement and in different aspects of the game.



The game itself requires a lot of hours for you to play it (Currently I have about 1134 hours on the game total over PC and PS4) so that means the game is most easily and well played at home rather than on the move, but its up to you how and when you play it, its a single player game meaning the game saves every 10-15 minutes depending on when you want it to, as well as being able to save it by yourself if you dont trust the auto-save feature. The game allows you to do whatever and make it your own with mods and community-made features that are supported and sold by the game itself. Some of the best DLC packs that have come from the Community have now in built support for the game itself as now you can find them on their PC, PS and Xbox store pages.
