Far Cry 4


Recommended Posts

As part of Ubisoft's earnings report today for the year ended March 31, the French publisher officially confirmed Far Cry 4, the next entry in the action series. It's not much of a surprise, as Ubisoft told GameSpot last year at E3 2013 that a follow-up to Far Cry 3 was a sure-thing based on the sales of that game.

 

"The year's performance will be led by five games--Assassins Creed Unity, Far Cry 4, Just Dance, The Crew, and Watch Dogs," Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot said in a statement. "Watch Dogs' pre-orders are at record levels and it is perfectly positioned to become the industrys most successful new IP in history."

 

Far Cry 4 is coming to Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PC on November 18. Today's confirmation of Far Cry 4 comes after a flurry of leaks. Here's how Ubisoft sets up the story for Far Cry 4:

 

"In Far Cry 4, players find themselves in Kyrat, a breathtaking, perilous and wild region of the Himalayas struggling under the regime of a despotic self-appointed king. Using a vast array of weapons, vehicles, and animals, players will write their own story across an exotic open-world landscape."

 

"Following the success of Far Cry 3, we wanted to take the franchise to the next level and create a game that will surprise players and exceed fans' expectations," executive producer Dan Hay said in a statement. "Given the unique setting, we feel Far Cry 4 will stand out as a top first-person shooter and we're eager to reveal more about the game in the coming months."

 

If you preorder Far Cry 4, you'll receive a limited edition version of the game that includes Hurk's Redemption, a three-part single-player mission pack featuring the character Hurk from Far Cry 3. You'll also receive Hurk's main weapon, the harpoon gun called The Impaler, if you preorder.

 

More information about Far Cry 4 will be shared during Ubisoft's E3 2014 briefing next month, to be held Monday June 9 at 3 p.m. PDT.

Saw this last night (and got a text from my brother this morning) about it. I'm stoked to see that this game will come out this year. My only hard decision to make will be...do I get it for PS3 or PS4? I've got all of the other games for PS3, but I need to add some new games for PS4.

 

Either way, I'm super excited!

When I saw 3 at E3 I had to have it. To me its gonna be tough to have a bad guy as awesome as Vaas. Saw on FB that Far Cry 4 was coming and was shocked. I'm possibly getting for PS4 because I'm getting one for Arkham Knight

I always preferred Hoyt over Vaas, but either way FC3 was awesome (got the platinum trophy for it). Now that they've announced FC4, it gives me even more of a reason to start Far Cry Classic, FC2 and FC3: Blood Dragon on PS3 (I recently bought a pack which has all 4 games in it).

 

Saw this as one of the comments on that link:

 

 

Today: Far Cry 4 announced.

Next week: Teaser trailer.

Next month: Pre rendered gameplay footage (looks awesome).

Later this year: Ubisoft delays Far Cry 4 'till late 2015.

Shortly after: Downgraded gameplay graphics surface in new video.

(never got around to playing FC2)

You didn't miss much. Lots of driving around, and the main character has malaria the whole time.

 

Anyways, I too am very much looking forward to Far Cry 4. I feel like they got the formula right with FC3 & Blood Dragon.

Far Cry 4 story leaked:

 

 

"Hidden in the majestic Himalayas lies Kyrat, a country steeped in tradition and violence. You are Ajay Ghale. Traveling to Kyrat to fulfill your mothers dying wish, you find yourself caught up in a civil war to overthrow the oppressive regime of dictator Pagan Min.

 

"Explore and navigate this vast open world, where danger and unpredictability lurk around every corner. Here, every decision counts, and every second is a story. Welcome to Kyrat."

Vaas was a shit villain. He was only decent in those short films they made prior to the game's release. Buck was a better villain. I think that was his name anyway.

As a villian, he sucked. As a character however, he stole the show.

Damn, I actually read the topic title wrong and thought it said Fallout 4 confirmed...

Haha when I was making the topic, before I pressed submit, I noticed it said Fallout 4 so I had to change it

Ah the old Vaas/Hoyt "who is better" debate. I'm fully on Team Hoyt when it comes to the 2. Anyway, I've preordered the Limited Edition of this for PS4. Only thing that gets me, is that the guy on the cover looks like Patrick Stewart with hair. Nevertheless, I'm stoked. Bring on October/November!

Not enjoying it as much as Far Cry 3, I'm confused on what's even going on

 

Ok got more hours in it and its awesome, my weapon of choice... A Bow of course. I'm a beast with it. And the helicopter is awesome to ride, along with the Elephants
