As revealed by Square Enix on the
Just Cause 4 official website, the distance calculated for the map is around 1024 km^2 or roughly the same as
Just Cause 2, meaning that the fourth entry in the explosive series will be slightly smaller than the one in
Just Cause 3. While the sheer map size might disappoint those who believe in the "bigger, better, more badass" rule, Solís' features may surprise them.
Just Cause 4's map is 1024km squared, which means it's roughly 32 x 32 kilometers. Solís will allow you to discover four totally different biomasses, each of them featuring unique trees, water, hills, rivers, and massive cities. As you may expect, there's a desert-ish area on the left, the mountains in the middle, lush forests on the right and hillside on the bottom, creating a pretty diverse landscape.
IGN has released yet another video focused on
Just Cause 4, titled
Flying Across the World of Solís. The power of Avalanche's new Apex engine allows the studio make some improvements, as
Just Cause 4 is now capable of rendering huge landscapes and extreme weather simulations, not to mention enhanced physics, and you can take a look at the war-torn South American island nation below:
Welcome to Solis, a huge South American world home of conflict, oppression and extreme weather conditions. Just Cause 4 sees rogue hero Rico Rodriguez land in Solis to hunt down the truth about his past, at any costs. Strap into your wingsuit, equip your fully customizable grappling hook, and get ready to bring the thunder!
Just Cause 4 will be available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on December 4, 2018.
