During Ubisoft’s press conference, a very detailed look at the third installment to the Far Cry series was shown, and even live demo’d to the crowd, showing off the various features and environments the Cry engine can pump out, along with a mad-man who literally throws you off of a cliff.
With Far Cry 3, players step into the shoes of Jason Brody, a man alone at the edge of the world, stranded on a mysterious tropical island. In this savage paradise where lawlessness and violence are the only sure thing, players dictate how the story unfolds, from the battles they choose to fight to the allies or enemies they make along the way. As Jason Brody, players will slash, sneak, detonate and shoot their way across the island in a world that has lost all sense of right and wrong.
“Far Cry 3 brings something new and unexpected, while still building upon the foundations of excellence that are inherent to the Far Cry brand,” said Dan Hay, producer at Ubisoft Montréal. “Whether you’re already a fan of the Far Cry series or jumping into the franchise for the very first time, you’re going to be blown away by the gritty story and epic adventure we’re going to deliver.”
Far Cry 3 is expected to be released sometime next year, on Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC.
