Far Cry 5 announced

Take down the cult in fictional Hope County, Montana early next year

Posted on

Ubisoft has formally announced Far Cry 5, the next entry in the long running aciton franchise, is coming early next year.

Set in America for the first time, players will have the freedom to navigate this twisted world solo or entirely in two-player co-op when the game releases on February 27, 2018. Development for Far Cry 5 is being led by Ubisoft Montreal.

As the new junior deputy of fictional Hope County, Montana, players will find that their arrival accelerates a years-long silent coup by a fanatical doomsday cult, the Project at Eden's Gate, igniting a violent takeover of the county. Caught off guard and drawn into a power struggle, players must disrupt the carefully laid plans of the Project at Eden’s Gate and fan the fires of resistance to help liberate the Hope County community and themselves.

Players will join forces with residents of Hope County and form the Resistance. While tracking down cult members and gathering resources for survival across farmland, forests, mountains and rivers, players can get behind the wheel of iconic American muscle cars, big rigs, ATVs and boats, and even planes.

At your disposal is an arsenal consisting of ranged weapons such as guns and grenades and melee weapons like a sledgehammer or baseball bat. Additionally, players can recruit Guns for Hire from a large cast of characters, or even Fangs for Hire, specialized animals like bears and cougars.

Far Cry 5 will also see the return of the map editor, giving players the opportunity to create and play in new scenarios. The map editor will include new features that add a new dimension to the content created by fans, with more details coming soon.

Additionally, players on PlayStation 4 system will get free content with purchase of the game at launch. Players on Xbox and PC systems will have the same content available through the Ubisoft Club.

Far Cry 5 will be available February 27, 2018 for PC, Xbox One, and PS4; with support for Project Scorpio/PS4 Pro.
