A little presumptuous you think? Be aware, however, that on Ubisoft’s side, we firmly believe in this opus which wishes to bring great novelty to the saga, starting with an arsenal which plays it original and especially in fashion making and getting by. On the gameplay side, we find the usual mechanics of an FPS à la Ubisoft, with an RPG aspect that will always be relevant. In addition to the options made possible by the DIY called “Resolver”, we can also use more traditional weapons and various means of transport such as horses, chariots and customizable vehicles. They can also surround themselves with pets such as Chorizo, a dachshund on wheels, or even Guapo, Juan’s pet crocodile, which charges the enemy when it is whistled. Convenient.
As for the characters, we learn that the player will take on the role of Dani Rojas, protagonist of the story, who will not be silent, hallelujah. Of course, it will be possible to choose between the male or female version of the central character, a habit in Ubisoft productions now. We will cross paths with other characters such as Clara Garcia, the leader of the revolutionary group Libertad or Juan Cortez, a disillusioned former KGB spy and seasoned guerrilla. As for the big bad, we no longer present him, it is Giancarlo Esposito (The Mandalorian, Breaking Bad) who will play the dictator Antón Castillo, who sows terror in the fictional country Yara, a tropical paradise frozen in time, located in heart of the Caribbean. Finally, be aware that Far Cry 6 will be playable solo or in two-player cooperation.
Release scheduled for October 7, 2021 therefore.
