The following trailer is rated H for Honest
From the studio, that's all about inclusion
and the show that includes everyone by telling them all that they equally suck,
comes a faithful video game adaptation that answers the age-old question:
Can you make a 16-hour game entirely out of fart jokes?
Yes, apparently the answer is yes!
SOUTH PARK THE FRACTURED BUT WHOLE
(oh, now I get it)
Immerse your brain in maximum fanservice
and hang out with the familiar faces of a series you followed on and off for years
as Ubisoft recreates the world of South Park with such accuracy
that it feels like you're playing an actual episode
with new mechanics like the racial difficulty slider
designed to launch a thousand think pieces
and an open world jam-packed with callbacks that will constantly have you saying
"Hey, I remember that"
until they turn right around and mock you for enjoying the exact thing they are currently doing
(Mocking)
in a video game experience that stays true to the core message of South Park:
'caring about literally anything is for LOSERS!'
(Farting on a trumpet)
Step into the tiny mountain town of South Park, Colorado
and get ready to wield your awesome fart powers once again
in the second iteration of Earthbound but with racism
as Fractured But Whole takes aim at superheroes,
tearing up classic genre tropes like
tragic backstories,
incredibly expensive villainous plots
and elaborate franchise plans (screw you, Marvel)
as a simple job of trying to find a cat for the reward money
becomes a war between super teams,
a nefarious criminal conspiracy
and a time travel plotline that brings South Park to the brink of disaster
THEN fixes it all with Morgan Freeman Ex-Machina
because it wouldn't be a superhero story
without casual retcons and last-minute asspoles.
Return to a South Park that's mostly unchanged from the previous game
and get ready to scour all over it again for collectibles
as you selfie your way through most of South Park's characters,
search every nook and cranny for junk to craft a bunch of items that you DON'T really need
and use team-based fart powers to solve puzzles
that for some reason needed to involve multiple button prompts of minigame
and an unskipable cutscene EVERY time
in an open world design that will push your tolerance for South Park references
and fart-based game mechanics to the ABSOLUTE limit.
You gotta wonder at this point: 'are the farts some kind of fetish thing?'
'The more I think about this, the more upset I get!'
Discover a brand new battle system
that ditches the first games turn-based system for babies first grid-based RPG
where you'll pick from a plethora of classes with unique powers and skill sets
and balance your skills with your other members
then find out none of your choices MATTERED because you get every class anyway
as you mix and match a wealth of skills to battle your increasingly ridiculous enemies
that gets a little less impressive when you realize the entire game is a cakewalk
and the only thing keeping the story battles interesting is a handful of fight gimmicks.
Look, if you thought a game about butholes was gonna be as deep as chess, I got no idea what to tell you!
So put on that cape,
shove that burrito in your face
and ass blast your way through another love letter to South Park fans
that you might want to avoid if you're not one
because without the warm comforting lens of nostalgia,
one long poop joke wrapped in an OK RPG PROBABLY isn't going to do it for you!

This game definitely goes places, but nothing quite tops dodging your dad's BALLS during a boss fight!
We'd show you a clip of that, but we don't want to get demonetized or whatever
so here's some footage of a PUPPY!
