It’s finally real and official: *Just Cause 3* is coming to PC, PS4 and Xbox One next year and, contrary to [earlier rumours](http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=925234), it will be a full-price release with zero micro-transaction bullshit tying it down.

Boom.

[Game Informer](http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2014/11/11/december-cover-revealed-just-cause-3-29401230.aspx?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter) has released the first details as part of an exclusive article to be published in their next issue. So, here’s how Avalanche plan on improving on *Just Cause 2*, my game of the PS3/Xbox 360 generation:

• Improved grapple mechanics;
• Open-world Mediterranean location;
• Next-gen only, so no concessions to older hardware;
• New wingsuit for Rico;
• WINGSUIT

They’ve also promised that it will continue to straddle the glorious line between fun and ridiculous, so hopefully it’ll once again prove to be the best playground in gaming.

It all sounds impossibly exciting already. At least I know the exact latest moment that I’ll own a PS4. Hurry up, 2015.
