After experiencing several delays, it looks as though Ubisoft is committed to releasing South Park: The Fractured But Whole, the sequel to the critically acclaimed Stick of Truth RPG game, on October 17th later this year. Most were expecting the game to make some sort of appearance at the Ubisoft conference today, but not much of the live event was devoted to the game, possibly due to the gameplay similarity to the first title speaking mostly for itself. What was shared at the press conference was the new E3 South Park: The Fractured But Whole trailer that reassures the manic and humorous tone of the original game and the show itself.

The new trailer shown at E3 today has also been posted to the official Ubisoft US YouTube account, showing the superhero-themed mayhem the game will entail. While previous trailers focused on the player’s character being introduced to the South Park kids, this trailer focuses on the conflict between the two warring superhero factions, one led by Cartman’s The Coon and the other by Kenny’s Mysterion, giving the story an obvious homage to Captain America: Civil War. Also revealed in this trailer is Wendy Testaburger’s superhero alter-ego, Call Girl (likely named for her utility belt full of mobile phones and definitely not anything else).

This trailer ends with the reminder of the game’s release on October 17th later this year, with a copy of the first game in the series, The Stick of Truth, included free with purchase. Also revealed in this video is additional bonus Towlie-themed content with a pre-order of the game.
