Trey Parker and Matt Stone are comedic legends, so it's understandable why the show floor erupted with applause when they made their way on stage during the start of the Ubisoft conference - and to announce this sequel no less! The successor to the critically lauded Stick of Truth, the aptly titled 'Fractured But Whole' will ditch its predecessors fantasy credentials for a comic book themed caper that's bound to delight and entertain South Park fans everywhere once it comes out. Though the title has some fairly big shoes to fill, the excitement surrounding its announcement was palpable - partly due to the fact it's one of the few truly fantastic licenced products in the medium to have made its way to consoles in recent memory. No release date was given, but expect Ubisoft San Francisco to be working overtime to bring the South Park sequel to audiences as soon as humanly possible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AB6P5gpNan0
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
