There’s not a whole lot we know aboutFar Cry 6other than that we shouldn’t be a far cry from a launch date. Ubisoft’s next first-person, open-world action campaign is expected to launch sometime this year. We may find out exactly when before the week is out. Ubi have announced that they’ll be showing off some proper Far Cry 6 play this Friday.

If you’d not heard yet, Ubi say that Far Cry 6 “plunges players into the heart of a modern-day guerrilla revolution set in Yara, a tropical paradise frozen in time under the oppressive rule of President Antón Castillo. As he vows to restore his nation to its former glory while grooming his son Diego to follow in his footsteps, players will embody Dani Rojas, a local military dropout turned guerrilla fighter in their quest to overthrow the tyrant and unite the nation.”

We don’t know a heck of a lot about Far Cry 6 just yet, but it’s one of RPS’smost anticipated action games of 2021.

“I’m clinging to the hope that Ubisoft aren’t just trying to makeFar Cry 3… again,” says Colm. “They’ve been chasing the Vaas buzz ever since they released that one back in 2012 (almost a full decade ago now), with charismatic villains of varying quality. I’d prefer this one to take some inspiration from the oft-forgottenFar CryNew Dawn. A weird sequel toFar Cry 5, it took the supernatural elements that the series had flirted with in the previous couple of entries and put them front and centre.”

Based on anUbi earnings callfrom earlier this year, it sounds likely that Far Cry 6 will launch before the end of September. Perhaps we’ll find that out for sure on Friday as well.
