There's another update on
Far Cry 5
on the UbiBlog following
today's big info
dump on the upcoming shooter sequel. This includes today's
sixth new video on the
game featuring an interview with Executive Producer and Creative Director Dan
Hay sharing more details on the project. The accompanying post discusses
character customization, pets, and more:
The curtain has officially been lifted on Far Cry 5, revealing more details
on the game’s setting, as well as The Project at Eden’s Gate and the resistance
that’s trying to free Hope County from the cult. Several details have also been
revealed about the gameplay. For starters, this will be the first Far Cry where
you can create your character and customize them to your liking before setting
out into the world – either solo or cooperatively with another player – across
the full campaign. Additionally, to aid you in your fight against Eden’s Gate
and Joseph Seed, you can enlist the help of up to three Guns for Hire and their
special skills. If you prefer furrier companions, Fangs for Hire give you the
ability to recruit animals and have them do your bidding.
You’ll have the freedom to explore Hope County and take on missions when and
how you want, too, and whatever actions you take will ultimately affect the
game’s Resistance Meter and consequently the game world. This means new gameplay
opportunities will manifest as you take the fight to Eden’s Gate in their own
backyard, and eventually draw out The Heralds – Joseph Seed’s siblings, who
control various aspects the cult.
