Far Cry 6 revealed, coming in 2021
After being leaked, then confirmed, Ubisoft showed off the first proper look at Far Cry 6, during the closing of their first Ubisoft Forward, while no gameplay was revealed, the trailer does help set the scene, check it out.
With performances from renowned actor and Emmy Award Nominee Giancarlo Esposito (Better Call Saul, The Boys, The Mandalorian) joined by Anthony Gonzalez (Coco), a score created by film and television composer Pedro Bromfman (Narcos), and an opening sequence directed by Emmy Award winner Patrick Clair (Westworld, True Detective), Far Cry 6 brings in Hollywood-calibre talent to bolster the narrative experience.
“Powerful and complex antagonists are part of Far Cry’s DNA, so right from the beginning we knew we had to raise the bar for who these characters could be and how they would come to life,” said Navid Khavari, Narrative Director, Ubisoft Toronto. “Working with such an amazing roster of talent, including the one and only Giancarlo Esposito, and seeing how they embody our antagonists as terrifying but also deeply complex human characters has been an unbelievable experience that I can’t wait to share with our fans.”
As I predicted, the name Dani means that players will be able to pick either a male of female version of the character, to suit their own play style. As Dani, players will become a guerrilla fighter and explore and unite an entire island nation, from lush jungles to Yara’s capital city Esperanza. To succeed against the overwhelming power of Anton’s regime, players will need to be resourceful as they employ an arsenal of unique new weapons, vehicles and Fangs For Hire like Chorizo, the cutest wiener dog on wheels.
The game is coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 on February 18, 2021 and those who get the game on the current consoles, can update to the next gen versions for free.
