14 DAY TRIAL // After Techland announced one of the most anticipated games of the year, Dying Light 2 arrives on December 7, Ubisoft revealed its triple A title, Far Cry 6 is set for release on October 7. Along with the game's release date, the French developer showed off gameplay footage that offers us a glance at what's to come.
But first, let's add that Far Cry 6 will arrive on Xbox Series X / S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Google Stadia, Amazon Luna, and PC exclusively on both the Epic Games Store and the Ubisoft Store. In addition, the game will be available on Ubisoft+, Ubisoft’s subscription service.
Unlike any of the previous titles in the series, Far Cry 6 is set in the fictional country of Yara, a tropical paradise frozen in time in the heart of the Caribbean. Players will step into the shoes of a guerrilla fighter as they join the revolution to liberate Yaran people from the oppressive rule of dictator Antón Castillo and his teenage son Diego – brought to life by Giancarlo Esposito (The Mandalorian, Breaking Bad) and Anthony Gonzalez (Coco).
You play as local Yaran and military dropout Dani Rojas, who joins the guerrilla movement as the brutality of Antón’s rule reaches new heights and the fire of revolution ignites across the country. In solo or two-player co-op, players will explore a vast and contrasted open world, from lush jungles to decaying cities.
Those who pre-order Far Cry 6 will get access to the “Libertad Pack” which includes the “Libertad Outfit” for Chorizo and the state-of-the-art “Discos Locos”, a weaponized disc launcher that will make enemies dance on their own graves.
Furthermore, players who purchase Far Cry 6 on Xbox One or PlayStation 4 will be able to upgrade their version to the next-gen at no additional cost on the Xbox Series X / S and the PlayStation 5. Finally, the standalone Ubicollectibles 26-cm tall figurine “Lions of Yara”, which showcases Antón Castillo, the President, and leader of Yara, and his teenage son Diego, is now available for pre-order on the Ubisoft Store. It includes a unique code that unlocks a weapon charm in Far Cry 6, the “The Lion of Yara.”
