Just Cause 3 Gameplay Revealed in Explosive Trailer

Developer Avalanche Studios has aired the world's first look at Just Cause 3 gameplay, with a video montage said to be captured directly from a console.

The video showcases the extent of Just Cause 3's potential for unrelenting destruction, with helicopter dog fights, high-speed car chases, planes ripping through pylon structures, and entire facilities going up in plumes of fire.

Between these scenes of destruction, the short trailer also hints at the exotic splendour of Just Cause 3's Mediterranean archipelago, Medici. Players are tasked with finding enemy bases within this fictional set of islands, as well as its propaganda billboards and loudspeakers, all of which must be destroyed. As the trailer shows, such obliteration can be approached creatively:

Publisher Square Enix said those who pre-order Just Cause 3 will be given the Weaponised Vehicle Pack, shown at the end of the trailer. This bonus content comes with three "exclusive luxury vehicles primed for action and fully loaded with the firepower to kick-start a revolution."

Just Cause 3 launches this holiday for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. GameSpot recently visited Avalanche's offices in Sweden and got to play some of the game. You can read our impressions here.
