South Park: The Fractured But Whole is ridiculously offensive and absurdly hilarious.

Cartman returns once more to inject some crude one-liners into a South Park turn-based RPG game that'll have you grinning from ear-to-ear from beginning to end. If you can deal with all the loading times you have a very loud and proud fart indeed.

Surely you've ever seen on television a chapter of South Park, the series that revolves around a group of children in the town of South Park, Colorado.

South Park The Fractured But Whole is like a 20-hour episode of South Park. A satirical take on superhero films, it looks, sounds and feels the part – for the good and the bad. Essential for fans of the show, not for those that are easily offended. And absolutely not for kids!

South Park: The Fractured But Whole successfully continues the story of The Stick of Truth and is more than a good stepping stone for the epic conclusion. That's of course presuming that Ubisoft won't stretch the franchise too thin.

The cleverly titled South Park: The Fractured But Whole builds on the legacy of the first game, improving on many elements but also taking a few steps backwards.

It’s difficult to recommend this title to anyone without much knowledge of South Park, because the experience is suffused with material only fans will fully appreciate. This is nevertheless one of the occasional licensed titles that actually does its source justice, and is an incredibly easy recommendation to anyone who likes RPGs and has some appreciation for Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s amazingly long-lived series.

It’s not perfect, and anyone expecting a colossal leap from the original might feel a little underwhelmed, but on its own merits, this is the sort of daring, bravura craftsmanship the industry could use more of at this time of the year.

All in all, South Park: The Fractured But Whole is a solid follow-up to the original game. It doesn't change too much, but the new combat system is an improvement over the original, and it retains the same sense of irreverent humor and love for the franchise as the first game. TFBW is a solid RPG on its own merits, and fans of South Park will find a ton to love here. The only thing that drags it down is feeling a bit too similar to the first game despite the differences, and some of the humor can fall dangerously flat. It's a fun, solid, and well-made licensed title that captured the good and bad of South Park while managing to craft an enjoyable gaming experience. What more can fans ask for?

The social commentary in this game is pretty spot on and I got more than my own fair share of laughs, even at my own expense at times as some jokes hit close to home. The fact that this is an RPG that plays really well and has a solid and surprisingly deep battle system is just the icing on the cake.

South Park: The Fractured But Whole is a polished and improved sequel to The Stick of Truth, but we're still ambivalent about the Marvel Cinematic Universe parody angle.

The Fractured But Whole is a worthy successor to 2014's Stick of Truth, but don't expect more of the same.

South Park: The Fractured but Whole is a funny and exciting sequel for The Stick of Truth, that improves all the flaws of the first chapter by adding some interesting new features, especially in the fighting system. While the story evolves in a slow way, especially in the first few hours, the game can be easily enjoyed for several hours thanks to the atmosphere and references to the original TV show.

An enjoyable and funny game especially for fans of South Park, but even those unfamiliar with it will find a unique game, although it's unique compared to competing games but a bit too similar to the first game.

Though mechanically The Fractured but Whole can feel rather flat, it remains a genuine South Park production with all of the humor, farting and ridiculousness you would expect, and that should be enough to satisfy fans - even if it doesn't wow them.
