Surprise update breathes new life into Just Cause 3, proving the chaotic sandbox still has tricks up its sleeve

Just Cause 3 main promotional image.

Whilst it likely needs no introduction, especially if you grew up with the franchise during the Xbox 360 era, Just Cause 3 is an open-world sandbox game developed by Avalanche Studios. It launched back in 2015, and the franchise was well known for its wingsuit traversal, over-the-top destruction, and a still surprisingly active PC modding scene (one of which just received the biggest mod to date).

What makes this interesting is that Avalanche Studios, the same studio that was working on the now-cancelled Contraband for Xbox, appears to have quietly updated Just Cause 3 almost ten years after release.
