There are some sagas that, chapter after chapter, have always demonstrated the will to forcefully change the cards in the table, both at the concept and ambient level. Far Cry is definitely one of these. From Jack Carver, ex-soldier in the Green Berets in the Micronesia seas, passing through Central Africa, the Rook Islands archipelago, and finally the queen of the Kyrat at the foot of the Himalayas.
Now with the next Far Cry 5– scheduled for the month of February next year – everything is moving back to our day, more specifically to Hope County, a town in Montana, whose tranquility is literally overturned by the arrival of Joseph Seed and his disciples, one unbridled, merciless preacher, a member of the Edge Gate Project, which with violence, blood and prayer (yes, you understand well) have imposed a real small city within the American area. Guess a little bit about who will overcome the religious madness of this large group of fanatics?
To dress up as a deputy chief of intent to put an end to this reign of stars and stripes, the player obviously will think of it. But the arrival in the city of a guardian of the law will spark a civil war of enormous proportions absolutely can not be sustained by a single individual. That is why the protagonist will be accompanied by other characters, each with his own ability, to create a true “opposite faction” to the damage of Seed and his sgherr.
It is by itself that the Far Cry 5 mainstream campaign will be both solitary and cooperative, which is definitely unpublished and highly appreciated by those who have been following the Ubisoft series since the dawn and has always been accustomed to dealing with everything and everyone in the clothes ofone-man army . We will find Mary May Fairgrave, owner of a vengeous vengeance bar for the death of his brother’s father, followed by Jerome Jeffries, a former reverend and now private executor, and finally Nick Rye, a field pilot of a field determined to put the fine word on Seed matter.
This time, in fact, there will not only be the survival of the protagonist and his ability to juggle in a hostile environment, but above all the same American reputation, characterized by unassailable values, beliefs and patriotic spirit, all things that the Project of the Gates Eden plans to dismantle, violently, piece by piece. Obviously, this will also be reflected in the main adventure, since we will occasionally fall into some narrative biases that will challenge our “faith” (although it is not yet clear how and in which specific circumstances).
God Bless America
From what we’ve been able to get from early official information, Far Cry 5as well as being able to carry out hunting hunting in Hope County, what we imagine will be linked to a series of theme missions to be performed individually or co-oped with a friend. If the map editor then turns out to be functional in the context, we will be able to spend a lot of hours inside the vast state of Montana.
As well as potentially very interesting, it has been proven to be the technical division that has always been a distinctive feature of the series, even more detailed and functional here, to outline the grassy outcrops and the landlords we are going to serve as vice sheriff and his loyal companions.
Of course, it is still very early to draw the sums on the visual goodness of the product, but already from the first trailer – which, remember, turned with the graphic engine developed by Ubisoft Montreal – the foundations seem to be in the right place. Hoping clearly to find out about Far Cry 5very soon, perhaps at the E3 2017 scheduled for a few days in Los Angeles.
