Minecraft players will be able to explore a blockier version of Far Cry 3’s world next week, as Ubisoft has confirmed that it’s going to release a special universe for the game with environments, weapons, and characters from the new first-person shooter.

Far Cry 3 is out in December, but Ubisoft has already started promoting the game through a variety of ways, ranging from videos to screenshots.

Now, the publisher is taking the Far Cry 3 marketing up a notch, as it’s just announced that a special Far Cry 3-themed universe will be released for popular indie game Minecraft next week, on October 26.

According to Ubisoft, the pack contains a massive world with environments from the game, as well as weapons and tools, not to mention actual characters, like the hero, Jason, or the villain, Vaas.

What’s more, over 50 Easter Eggs are hidden in the universe, so Minecraft players have plenty of things to do before Far Cry 3 is officially released in December.
