Just Cause is a series of military sandbox games developed by Avalanche Studios. They focus on the exploits of Rico Rodriguez, an action hero implied to be working for the CIA to overthrow fictitious Banana Republics. The traversal with the grappling hook/parachute/wingsuit combo is what really makes the Just Cause games stick out among their peers.

Rumor has it that a movie adaptation, titled Just Cause: Scorpion Rising is in production.

Not to be confused with the early-2000s Canadian TV series, or with the 1995 film.
