october 17 , 2017
"the fractured but whole" was released worldwide on october 17, 2017, for microsoft windows, playstation 4, and xbox one. in contrast to the previous game, "the fractured but whole" was released worldwide without having to censor any content. in a september 2017 interview, usf associate producer kimberly weigend said the game's content was not tamer than that of "the stick of truth", and the uncensored release was possibly a sign of censors becoming more open to ideas and that interactive media was a relatively new medium and the ratings system was evolving alongside it. design director paul cross said to prevent the difficulties "the stick of truth" experienced, usf tried to avoid content they knew would be censored, but that parker and stone would tell the story they wanted regardless of censorship concerns.

"the fractured but whole", was publicly revealed on june 15, 2015, at ubisoft's press conference at the 2015 electronic entertainment expo, and in june 2016 a release date of december 6 was set. in september that year, the game's release was postponed to early 2017. in february 2017, it was again postponed to between april 2017 and march 2018. in may 2017 it received its eventual release date of october 17. discussing the delays, higo said usf was unhappy with the game's quality and wanted more time to refine it. these refinements often led to story changes—sometimes for pacing or comedy purposes—which meant entire sections of the game and their assets needed to be reworked. some missions were completely removed despite being far into development. unlike more typical videogame prototyping, in which designers experiment with simple gameplay demos, usf relied more heavily on interactive storyboards of the script to gain a sense of the location and the narrative. parker and stone provided feedback and the designers would change the storyboard until it was considered to be perfect. "the fractured but whole" was officially released to manufacturing on september 22, 2017.
