Matt Stone and Trey Parker have been hard at work with their second themed South Park game, South Park: The Fractured But Whole, featuring the ability to create your own super hero.

See, when Parker and co-creator Matt Stone took this potential title up the chain of Ubisoft decision-makers, word came down that retailers wouldn’t allow them to use the word “butthole” in their title. Several Ubisoft San Francisco and South Park Digital Studios staff members also highlight some of the differences between developing South Park the show and South Park the game.

Season 20 of South Park premieres at 10 PM September 14 on Comedy Central.

PewDiePie’s feedback partially explains the game’s more advanced combat system, which trades out traditional JRPG gameplay for a more elaborate turn-based strategy board, with different positions in the combat environment affecting how attacks work.

The Fractured but Whole will enable players to delve into the crime-ridden underbelly of South Park with Coon and Friends. Parker had to drop a little South Park history and tell the packed crowd that they already did an episode about the popular game way back during season 3 of the hit Comedy Central series.
