'Sky Fortress', the first pack of the Air, Land and Sea Expansion Pass, is currently being tested but should be made available soon for players who bought the game's XL Edition.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The DLC will see new missions and features added to the game, and will also be available as a separate purchase for those who bought just the regular version of Just Cause 3.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Avalanche have also stated that some weapons and vehicles which were only available with the pre-order can now be picked up on Steam, PlayStation Network and Xbox Live, including the Weaponised Vehicle Pack and the Explosive Weapon Pack.</div>

Studio co-founder Christofer Sundberg said at the time: "We owe those guys a lot. They have actually supported the game and helped it stay alive so many years after it was released.</div>

Just Cause 3 on PS4 review: Does Rico's latest destruction derby fly or frustrate?

Watching a diet of 80s films like Die Hard and Lethal Weapon made me daydream of what it would be like to be a haggard, one-liner spouting hero who saves the day against all odds.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now, as I have reached adulthood, my desire to become the next John McClane has significantly reduced and the closest I get to thrill-seeking is going outside on a cold day without my jacket.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Which is why Just Cause 3 seemed like an ideal game – letting me live out my fantasies of starring in an 80s action film but all from the comfort of my own living room.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In it you play Rico Rodriguez, a one man dictator destroying machine who returns to his old idyllic home of Medici to find it run by the evil and power hungry General Di Ravello.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Like all the best bad guys, he is intent on world domination and it’s up to you to stop him.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thankfully, Rico is armed to the teeth without enough gadgets to turn him into a one man army.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Key to this is the grappling hook – which not only can be used to help Rico travel large distances but can also spark huge levels of destruction.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Explosives can be sent flying towards gas canisters, enemy vehicles can be pulled towards each other causing a crash, or you can even pull yourself towards an enemy helicopter and blow it up mid-air.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Like its predecessor, the much loved Just Cause 2, the game prides itself on making sure virtually everything in the game can be destroyed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Huge explosions level buildings with pieces falling around you in some of the most impressive destruction physics seen in a game for years.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It’s a huge thrill when you’re in the middle of a gun fight and you manage to cause utter carnage and take out streams of enemy forces and their vehicles by destroying a few nearby gas canisters.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The island of Medici is a vast place to explore. A staggering, massive map which is divided up into different areas General Di Ravello controls.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As you progress, regions have to be liberated from the dictator’s stranglehold – which involves destroying certain things like military bases and police stations he controls.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The blog post also addressed concerns from Just Cause 3 gamers looking for answers on certain issues.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Unskippable cutscenes: “You can skip cutscenes, in fact - all you need to do is hold B on your gamepad, or hit ‘Skip’ from the pause menu.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- No sprint button: “This isn’t an oversight; it’s very much intended. Our designed’s intent was to encourage you to use Rico’s unique grapple to move around Medici far quicker than his legs would allow, as well as giving you the ability to traverse vertically.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- No crouch: “Rico doesn’t hide. Getting him up in the air is our version of the cover mechanic. Rico is far more deadly in the skies, than pinned behind a container on the ground.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Finding the last Chaos object: “While there’s no mini-map to help you liberate bases and towns, you can always bring up your map to help find Chaos objects. When you’re down to the last few objects in any given settlement, an approximate location for these will be displayed on the map.”</div>
