With the studio acquisition, and the holidays right around the corner, I took my sweet time finishing up this review. Despite the wealth of amazing open-world experiences we got in 2018, I was still anticipating getting to play as Rico one more time this generation. Now that I’m finished with Just Cause 4, however, it’s clear to me that this game needs a lot more polish. It feels like a level of roughness that Avalanche and Square Enix was able to accept in terms of what sales they could expect from their core audience. There were a lot of thrilling moments in my playthrough, but I never forgot how little I cared about the characters, and how ugly this world can look sometimes. I think fans will be satisfied, but anyone that’s curious about this franchise should pick up Just Cause 3 instead.
