Today, a day that will live in infamy, Ubisoft announced the next installment of the really quite excellent Far Cry® series. That’s right, boys and girls, on November 21st 2014 you will be able to grab your copy of Far Cry® 4 on PS3, XBox 360, PS4, XBox One and PC.
Far Cry® 4, is set in Kyrat, a breathtaking, perilous and wild region of the Himalayas, struggling under the regime of a despotic, self-appointed king. Using a vast array of weapons, vehicles, and animals, players will write their own story across an exotic open-world landscape.
Dan Hay, Ubisoft bigwig had this to say:
Following the success of Far Cry 3, we wanted to take the franchise to the next level and create a game that will surprise players and exceed fans’ expectations. Given the unique setting, we feel Far Cry® 4 will stand out as a top first-person shooter and we’re eager to reveal more about the game in the coming months.
If you want to get your eyeballs on it, you can tune into Ubisoft’s Media Briefing at E3 for an exclusive first look.
You can even pre-order now and if you do, you get a whole heap of goodies, including Hurk’s Redemption, a series of three action-packed single-player missions featuring the popular character Hurk from Far Cry 3’s DLC. If that wasn’t enough the Limited Edition also includes Hurk’s signature harpoon gun called “The Impaler” Sounds pretty fricking awesome!
