Though Microsoft cancelled Scalebound for reasons unknown, they've plundered ahead with Crackdown 3 as one of the ONLY major first-party games on their upcoming schedule.

Boasting what once sounded like revolutionary tech that would channel the third-person Red Faction games or more recently, Just Cause, we'd supposedly get access to a few cities that could be completely levelled.

Done by mixing the processing power of the Xbox One and streaming other background processes to 'the Cloud' and back simultaneously, somehow this would give Crackdown 3 a notable step up in pure chaos.

Fast forward a couple of years and this feature has been all-but removed from the game's marketing, apparently still showing up in multiplayer, but mainly meaning that this - like Crackdown 2 - will almost definitely be more of the same.
