It’s trying like the following Far Cry goes to be set after the top of the world. Teasing a full announcement for The Game Awards tomorrow evening (which Alice Prime can be burning the midnight oil to cowl), the trailer beneath provides us just a little style of the issues to come back. Ubisoft handle to carry again from declaring that ‘war never changes’, however that pneumatic saw-crossbow positive seems to be Mad Max-ish to me. Ubisoft name it “a new Far Cry game” but it surely’s not but clear whether or not will probably be a direct sequel, a spin-off, or what.
So, BIG SPOILERS for anybody who hasn’t performed by means of Far Cry 5, though I admit that I skipped on the game myself: This new game would possibly simply be a direct sequel.
Far Cry 5 ended with a bang. Thematically un-earned, arguably. John even called it one of “the worst endings in all of gaming history”, however not less than it’s a great way to wipe the slate clear and get us away from FC5’s garbage drug-cults and boring, generic weaponry. According to the teaser, the world has bounced again from apocalypse, and develop into lush and verdant after eliminating most of us pesky people. Of course, it wouldn’t be a Far Cry game with out some hackneyed villains, and apparently not all is properly in post-apocalyptic paradise.
I’m personally hoping for one more pseudo-spinoff game within the vein of Far Cry: Primal, the second greatest within the collection, shut behind Far Cry 2. The weapon proven within the teaser is the form of bizarre, impractical post-apocalyptic nonsense I’m all the time down for. A nonsensical mix of excessive and low tech, and much more fascinating than simply one other M16 or AK47-like. Primal proved that Far Cry is at its greatest if you’re not toting round a bullet-hose, and even cleverly re-used FC4’s map, so I’ve received my fingers crossed for extra restraint. Either approach, we’ll discover out extra tomorrow.
Ubisoft can be correctly unveiling this new Far Cry factor late tomorrow evening – technically Friday, December seventh 1:30am GMT, for us British night-owls.
