Review of Crackdown 3, the biggest Xbox game of the year so far. Can the much-delayed third entry get the open-world action series back on course?

Crackdown 3's campaign is a fun and silly playground full of things to shoot, destroy and punch, but one with little creativity or unique spark. The cloud-powered destruction of its multiplayer mode is impressive, but with uninspired modes and map designs it fails to live up to its own hype.

All these years later, Crackdown 3 delivers on what made the original an enjoyable game, but never much more. Though the compulsive hunt for collectibles can be satisfying for a time, its overall campaign doesn't evolve beyond a mostly bland auto-lock shooting gallery. Its tacked-on Wrecking Zone multiplayer highlights some neat cloud-powered destruction that's never used to great effect in this tiny and woefully barebones mode.

Crackdown 3 feels like a game unstuck from time, a piece of 2007-era design that sneaked through into 2019, with middling results.

Crackdown 3 is fun to play and requires very little in terms of concentration to perform well, but at the same time, it’s fairly limited in scope and most players won’t find enough on offer to keep coming back.

Crackdown 3 can be great fun, but the open-world genre has come on leaps and bounds in the past decade, and this feels firmly stuck in the past.
