After MANY delays, Crackdown 3 is alive and well, and now we know it’s coming on November 7th to the Xbox One family of systems. What is immediately clear is that they’re keeping the insanity cranked up to 11, even bringing in Terry Crews to intro the latest trailer. The powers are bigger, the booms are more powerful, and the scale seems to be grander than any Crackdown game to have come before it. Check out the full trailer below. https://youtu.be/k_9fG8hPCi0

Microsoft has officially revealed that the first gameplay footage for the upcoming next installment of the Crackdown franchise will finally be revealed next week at the upcoming Gamescom 2015.

According to Spencer, the final Gamescom content review was yesterday (July 27), “and things are becoming final. Lots of nostalgia for me with the Crackdown gameplay.” This will be the first look for players at actual gameplay for the new Crackdown game.
