Tags: South Park: The Fractured But Whole; Ubisoft

Ubisoft's upcoming superhero-themed South Park RPG sequel, South Park: The Fractured But Whole, made a surprisingly good impression on us at E3 back in June. It's had a minor presence at Gamescom this week as well, with a new trailer produced for the occasion along with a series of parodic ads for a tie-in product called the "Nosulus Rift", the functionality of which I'll let you figure out for yourselves. Here's the trailer:



They're calling it a "gameplay trailer", but as you can see it doesn't contain all that much gameplay, or anything else for that matter. Luckily, actual gameplay footage has been provided to a number of websites, such as PCGamesN, IGN, GameSpot and Polygon. You might also be interested in GameSpot's preview of the game, which reveals its unlikely RPG inspirations in an interview with one of the developers.

Can't wait for this! The first part made me laugh so hard! As a fan of the series I can't believe how good The Stick of Truth was. Hope it will live up to Obsidian's first!

Inb4 Ubisoft makes a better RPG than Obshitian. It's quite telling how Stone and Parker ditched obshitian after 1 title. They obviously hated it there.

Wasn't it Ubisoft themselves who decided to do the next one in-house? Seems to be a theme with the big publishers nowadays. At any rate, they seemed to get along just fine from what I could see.

Ubisoft didn't even have the rights to the IP at first, they only acquired it after THQ, the initial publisher, went down.
