Hi all!
I know I do not haunt these boards very frequently anymore, but there hasn't been much interest (on my part) in things Far Cry for a while. I was rather disappointed in the last few entries and after finishing New Dawn I was... satisfied at the conclusion to Far Cry 5, but still completely underwhelmed.
However I thought this was worth sharing. It appears that Far Cry 6 may have been "accidentally" leaked (one does have to wonder about these supposed leaks which happen more and more frequently). According to the rumors this was leaked via the Hong Kong Playstation store apparently putting up the info too soon.
Attached is a copy of the image translated to English. If true FC6 will take place on a tropical island that sounds a bit like it was inspired by Cuba or South America. The limited information makes this game sound more like the traditional plot lines of older Far Cry games where you play as an influential force in a rebel faction trying to take down a regime. The possible inclusion of a "child dictator" is interesting and some keen folks have pointed out a possible link to Far Cry 3.
I am interested of course, but wary as the last few games have been progressively casualized and while pretty these games offer little difficulty or even meaningful choices... their stories have also been very lackluster in my opinion. Still one can be hopeful that the next Far Cry will indeed return to at least some of it's roots.
