A cold, calculating dictator and a mysterious boy.
The Far Cry series is a Ubisoft staple, with Ubisoft Montreal helming every game, except for the very first one which was developed by Crytek. Each Far Cry game takes place in a completely new setting, with some sort of powerful dictator or threat that needs to be deposed. While the existence of a new Far Cry game was being speculated, the existence of Far Cry 6 first leaked through a listing on the PlayStation Store.
With both Far Cry 4 and Far Cry 5 selling over 10 million copies, it's safe to say this is going to be a big game. Ubisoft is going to share more about Far Cry 6 at Ubisoft Forward but fortunately, there's already a decent amount of info in the wild. Here's everything we know about Far Cry 6.

Far Cry 6 trailer
The trailer for Far Cry 6 leaked but was quickly pulled by Ubisoft. We'll be sure to share it again when an official link is out.
Far Cry 6 location and villain
Far Cry 6 is set on the island of Yara, which is described as "a tropical paradise frozen in time" and the largest Far Cry setting so far. The main villain is a dictator named Anton Castillo, portrayed by none other than Giancarlo Esposito of Breaking Bad fame. The young boy also in the cover art is Castillo's son, Diego.
Far Cry 6 gameplay and features
Like past Far Cry games, this is an open world first-person shooter. Players will have access to a variety of vehicles and weapons as they fight against the regime. You'll also be able to employ Amigos, guns for hire.
Is Far Cry 6 a prequel?
Fans are beginning to theorize that Far Cry 6 is a prequel to Far Cry 3. The young boy Diego has a scar on his right eyebrow in roughly the same spot as Vaas.
