    Ubisoft confirmed last week that Far Cry 5 was coming out this year, and now they've posted a series of teaser videos ahead of the full reveal on the 26th May.











    At the moment, all we know for certain is that the game will be set in the fictional Hope County, Montana (U.S.A). Although it has been rumoured that the protagonist is a cop going up against a religious cult/militia/survivalist group.

    That setting is quite out of the blue but I'm looking forward to the game. Far Cry 3 was fantastic. 4 just felt like a carbon copy but with a weaker setting and antagonist. Got bored of it after about 4 hours.

    I was reading about this the other day and the rumours were it would be set in Montana, the setting alone has me totally excited! Haven't cared for the last few Far Cry games but Montana in the mid to late 1800's means a definite purchase from me!

    EDIT.

    Some Lakota, Cheyenne, Crow, Flathead, Sioux etc representation would be grand!

    Far Cry games are the equivelent of some big action popcorn film to me, just pure ridiculous fun, always get a good kick out of them!

    Ah well according to this fella it will be a modern day western, still right up my street mind you but kinda gutted it won't be a historical western.

    Ubisoft have released the key art for the game (I'm gusssing this is probably going to be the cover as well) which seems to confirm the cult rumours:

    Very interesting setting, didn't expect that. Look forward to playing this as I didn't get around to playing 4(didn't miss much from what I've heared) although 3 was superb.

    Just to give the heads up to anyone interested, the official reveal will take place today at 1.45pm or 2pm (I've seen both times being banded about).

    I'll post links to the livestream's when its bit closer to the actual reveal time.
