A New South Park Game Is In The Works

Ubisoft was responsible for publishing both South Park: The Stick of Truth and South Park: The Fractured But Whole which was popular among fans and critics. Now it seems a new game is in development but not being funded by Ubisoft.

According to Bloomberg Matt Stone and Trey Parker signed a deal with Viacom to create "several spinoff movies" for the streaming service Paramount+, a documentary series about South Park, a weed company, and a 3D video game.

Earlier this year, Stone and Parker established a $600 million credit facility with HPS Investment Partners LLC that appraised their library at close to $1 billion, according to people familiar with the terms of the deal. In addition to the movies for Paramount+, Parker and Stone are going to use that money to invest in a wide range of creative endeavors, including a documentary series, a weed company and a 3D video game that is set in the world of “South Park.” 

The 3D part is strange as 3D games based on the popular series were not well-received. The games do have a strong cult following but the direction developers Obsidian Entertainment and Ubisoft took were ideally better. The titles published by Ubisoft were as they captured the essence of South Park but perhaps these games might surprise us.
