Just Cause 3 gets an avalanche of new details

Fresh details on Avalanche Studios’ recently-announced Just Cause 3 have started trickling onto the web. 

Various sources confirm that, despite prior rumors, the open-world action sequel won’t incorporate microtransaction, nor will it be free-to-play. Just Cause 3 is also single-player only (at least for the time being), so don’t expect any multiplayer action.

The official blurb is as follows:

The Mediterranean republic of Medici is suffering under the brutal control of General Di Ravello, a dictator with an insatiable appetite for power. Enter Rico Rodriguez, a man on a mission to destroy the General’s hold on power by any means necessary. With over 400 square miles of complete freedom from sky to seabed and a huge arsenal of weaponry, gadgets and vehicles, prepare to unleash chaos in the most creative and explosive ways you can imagine.”
