Just Cause Play Order

All four Just Cause games in order, from San Esperito in 2006 through Panau, Medici and Solis in 2018. Rico Rodriguez leads every entry against a new dictator, so release order is story order and each map stands alone.

Four games in order. Same hero, new island each time.

About Just Cause

Just Cause follows Rico Rodriguez, an agency operative who topples island dictators with a grapple hook and wingsuit. The first game hit San Esperito in 2006. Just Cause 2 moved to Panau in 2010 and made the series famous for open chaos. Just Cause 3 hit Medici in 2015 with full destruction.

Just Cause 4 landed in Solis in December 2018 with extreme weather. A fifth game was never announced and a leaked listing was cancelled, with Avalanche moving to other projects. The mobile spinoff was cancelled in 2023. Play 1 through 4 in order. Each story ends clean.

Good to know

There is no separate chronological order. Each game follows the last with Rico older and on a new mission, so release order is the only list. You can start at 2 or 3 and miss little, since every plot resets with a new island. The series is dormant as of September 2026, with no Just Cause 5 in production and the film still unmade.
