Instead of taking place on a static plane, battles now can take place on a variable number of grid sizes on which the player and enemies can move only according to his or her respective grid and move set all viewed from a 2.5D, third-person perspective. Regardless, I do have to say, the gameplay for this game has greatly improved since 2014's 'Stick of Truth'.
Without spoiling the game, too much, while, it doesn't make much sense, why this sequel retain the turn-based combat of the last game over real-time button pushing seeing how it not-longer, seem to parodying games like 'World of Warcraft' & 'Final Fantasies', but instead, Marvel Cinematic Universe movies. Along the way, the journey also brings the player into conflict with various memorable characters including the local elderly population, ninjas, the sixth graders, rednecks, the Hooters-parodying Raisins girls, and others in a turn-based combat system. Developed and published by Ubisoft, in collaboration with South Park Digital Studios, 2017's 'South Park: The Fractured but Whole' is a video game in which the player controls the character of the New Kid, a silent, but deadly protagonist, taking part of a heroic live action role-playing game, involving, two competing 4th grader superhero factions fighting to create their own superhero media franchises while also, meanwhile trying to solve, a local crime, in order to help fund their project.
