ResetEra notes a since-deleted page on the
PlayStation Store leaked some details about
Far Cry 6, showing a
February 18, 2021 release date for the next installment in Ubisoft's shooter
series. This includes a confirmation that the antagonist will be Giancarlo
Esposito, of Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, and The Mandalorian fame.
Presumably the official announcement will come during Sunday's
Ubisoft Forward event.
They offer a
screen capture of the post before it was removed but there appears to be a
better translated screenshot on
DSOGaming. Here's what it says about the game:
Welcome to Yara, a
tropical paradise frozen in time. As the dictator of Yara, Anton Castillo is
intent on restoring his nation back to its former glory by any means, with his
son, Diego, following in his bloody footsteps. Their ruthless oppression has
ignited a revolution.
