Just Cause 3 is in development!

Although it seems to be the only source so far, a recent Hollywood Reporter article - regarding the Just Cause Movie, Just Cause: Scorpion Rising currently being rewritten (more details soon) - suggests that Just Cause 3 is indeed in development.

The article states, rather clearly too... Just Cause 2 was released earlier this year and sold more than 3.5 million copies; a third game is now in development.

That seems somewhat more concrete than anything I've seen before, although I had no doubt there would be a third instalment lurking around the corner.

Christofer Sundberg, Founder/CEO of Avalanche Studios and father of the Just Cause series, has hinted on numerous occasions that "We are absolutely interested in working with the Just Cause IP again", even suggested that fans "shouldn't be surprised" to see a third instalment.

You may have seen a lot of rumours being started surrounding Just Cause 3, the most recent of which suggesting the game is set for release next year, but this seems highly unlikely to me - given the time it took for Just Cause 2 to be developed.

Instead, it won't be long before the official announcement, which is likely to happen sometime in February.

Stay tuned folks!
