During Ubisoftâs Far Cry 6 livestream, we learned more about the gameâs main character Dani Rojas. Your main character can be either a man or woman and youâll be able to customize them further as they move up the ranks of the revolution. Rojas will be able to sneak around the island, offering bribes or hiding their weapons to pass by government troops. Youâll be able to create unique weapons using junk. One weapon even fires CDs at enemies while playing music (we heard âMacarenaâ).
Announced back in July 2020, Far Cry 6 is set on the small, fictional island nation of Yara, which according to Ubisoft is heavily inspired by real-world Cuba. The gameâs main villain is AntĂłn Castillo, a ruthless dictator played by Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad, The Mandalorian). Far Cry 6 was originally planned to be released in February of this year, but was delayed due to âproduction challenges related to working from homeâ during the covid-19 pandemic.
Again, Far Cry 6 is out on October 7 on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PC, and Stadia.
