Just Cause 3 has just received a brand new video, this time in the form of a developer diary from Avalanche Studios, which specifically focuses on franchise protagonist Rico Rodriguez.

Just Cause 3 is the next entry in the explosive series made by Avalanche, and plenty of different gameplay videos have already been shared by the studio throughout recent months.

Now, as part of a first developer diary, the studio goes in depth about the main protagonist of the series, Rico Rodriguez.

Avalanche explains that, initially, it didn't want to focus all that much on Rico but in this third installment the story explores the anti-hero a bit more.

The video also portrays a fair amount of gameplay footage from the actual title but also behind-the-scenes sequences from the performance capture sessions, the design meetings, as well as the actual iterating on elements like the all-new wingsuit.

There is also a huge number of animations for Rico and his different gadgets, and the studio even emphasizes the ideas it took from the modding community.

The whole video stresses the desire for innovation from Avalanche and gets fans hyped up about the new open-world game.

Just Cause 3 launches on December 1, all around the world, across PC, PS4, and Xbox One platforms.
