South Park: The Fractured But Whole Trailer Released

Ubisoft has been taking a bit more time to nail down their newest South Park game called South Park: The Fractured But Whole, but today during their E3 presentation, they revealed a new trailer for the game, and it looks just as crude as fans of the series would hope to have it.

Being developed by Ubisoft San Francisco with the team working closely with Matt Stone and Trey Parker, the comedy minds behind the South Park series, South Park: The Fractured But Whole was first announced back in 2015. A sequel to the RPG South Park: The Stick of Truth that was released in 2014, this single-player ride through the South Park universe will take place following the events of the first game in the series.

As members of the South Park series take on their superhero alter egos in a pseudo civil war between former friends, players will take on the role of the New Kid once again, but this time around, you'll be able to select your gender. While the first game offered four different classes to pick from to incorporate the RPG elements — Fighter, Thief, Mage, and Jew being the choices — this newest game in the series will feature 12 superhero classes to pick from instead, identities that include the Blaster, Psychic, and Cyborg classes.

Being the superhero that you are, you have to have a way to protect your identity as well. You'll be able to create your own superhero costume while you engage in extremely crude battles and scavenge for loot to continue your RPG adventure.

The game has experienced a couple of delays along the way as the team looked to perfect the sequel. A release date of Dec. 6, 2016, was first given and was later pushed back to early 2017, a date that was soon pushed back by Ubisoft again to a later date. It was recently revealed in May that the game would be releasing in October of this year.

Some censorship issues have also come up with the game, a situation that's not hard to believe if you're got any knowledge of how South Park's episodes typically run. The original title of the game, "The Butthole of Time," had to be altered because Trey Parker was told that retailers wouldn't take kindly to having the word "Butthole" in the game's title. Recently, a director from Ubisoft San Francisco said that the team would do their best to not have to censor anything in the game, but that they "can't promise" that it would work out that way.

South Park: The Fractured But Whole is scheduled to be released on Oct. 17 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
