It not only looks awesome, but it feels great, and it’s especially exciting when you apply it to combat. Players can now zipline with their grappling hook towards a target, launch into the air by switching to the parachute, seamlessly transition into the wingsuit to glide through the air at high speeds and then switch back to the parachute to once again get a burst of vertical momentum.
The aforementioned wingsuit completely revamps how players move throughout the world. It’s a shame because nearly every new addition in Just Cause 3 is fantastic. Unfortunately, a dull campaign with forgettable characters, poor writing, repetitive missions, a curiously designed character progression system and a host of technical issues weigh down what should’ve been a gigantic leap in quality for the Just Cause series. This is the kind of unscripted fun to be had in Just Cause 3, and it’s in moments like these where the game gives glimpses of its incredible potential. In my own personal world of Just Cause 3, such is the price of committing a hit and run on Rico Rodriguez. After taking the guy out of his car, anchoring him to the ground so he doesn’t try to run away, I lecture him about the importance of traffic safety, then tether him to his car, strap some rockets to the back of it, and smile as it soars off into the distance before exploding in a magnificent ball of fire. The car fruitlessly tries to break away from the tether as I slowly reel it in.
Furious, I take to the skies with my wingsuit and tail the car through a tunnel until I catch up and anchor it to the street with my trusty grappling hook.

I get run over by a reckless driver who speeds off, thinking they just got away with a nice little hit and run. Available on PlayStation 4 (reviewed), Xbox One and PC.
