Xbox head honcho Phil Spencer has confirmed that more Crackdown 3 footage is on the way. Writing on Twitter, Spencer said the game will have a ‘good demo’ at Gamescom 2017. His comment was a response to a question about Crackdown 3’s use of cloud-compute technology in the game’s multiplayer, which is said to require four times more bandwidth than a regular multiplayer game.
Crackdown will be at Gamescom and we’ll show more there. Yes, I saw the SDCC stream. We’ll make sure we have a good demo.

According to some reports, Crackdown 3 didn’t fare too well during the game’s panel at San Diego Comic-Con, as apparently the celebs playing the game weren’t very good. Spencer said he’d seen the panel, and he’s promised that the gamescom showing will be much better. He also defended the celebs playing the game, saying it’s ‘unfair to judge people who don’t play all the time’. Fair point that, Phillip, good on you.
Unfair to judge people who don’t play all the time on demos but for those who play CD, know what LT does is critical..
