The first trailer has just been released for the latest addition to the Far Cry video-game series, Far Cry Primal.
You can watch the trailer below:
The ‘Far Cry’ franchise has had an amazing run over the last several years with 3 and 4 being huge commercial hits that garnered much praise from critics and gamers alike. It was natural that there would be a new game in the works. Finally, we got our answer what the new ‘Far Cry’ game will be about – the franchise is going back in time and will showcase survival in the Stone Age.
The main series of games has followed different protagonists through various fictional settings like the tropics in ‘Far Cry’ an Unnamed African Country in ‘Far Cry 2’, the Rook Islands in ‘Far Cry 3’ and the country of Kyrat ‘Far Cry 4’. Now the game will let you be a human from the year 10000 BCE by the name of Takkar in the ancient land of Oros. The objective for the player will be to survive and conquer this beautiful, but wild Mesolithic land. Oros will be full of mega fauna like enemy tribes, Mammoths and saber-toothed tigers. There have been many crazy things in this franchise like yetis and mutants, but I did not expect this move by Ubisoft. I must say it looks like a huge upgrade for the player to be hunting wooly mammoths instead of sharks.
Ubisoft Toronto, Ubisoft Shanghai, and Ubisoft Kiev are helping with bringing the world of ‘Far Cry Primal’ to life. Jean-Christophe Guyot – the creative director behind ‘Prince of Persia’ from 2008 and ’Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands’ – is the game’s creative director.
‘Far Cry Primal’ is expected to be available on February 23, 2016 with a PC release in March of that year.
