News: You will be able to engage in guerrilla warfare on the island of Yara this holiday season.

Earlier today Ubisoft held their own mini event online to show off game play for the first time in Far Cry 6. Far Cry 6 takes place on a Caribbean island that was once a paradise but is now filled with revolutionary tension that is just waiting for a spark to ignite everything. That spark will be you as you fight back against the island’s violent leader President Anton Castillo, played by Giancarlo Esposito (“Better Call Saul,” “The Boys,” “The Mandalorian”).

You are Dani Rojas and you will be the person that sets the revolution into motion. You can customize your character to look however they want, including the choice of whether or not you want your Dani to be a female or a male. As you go through the game you will engage in guerrilla warfare across the island of Yara. You were born and raised in Yara and know the island well. There will be a powerful array of weapons and vehicles to use as you build a network of allies to fight alongside you, including Fangs for Hire like Chorizo, the dangerously distracting wiener dog. While you are busy building the revolution, the President is doing everything he can to remake everything in his image, and he is grooming his son Diego (played by Anthony Gonzalez - “Coco”) to succeed him.

If you choose to purchase Far Cry 6 on either Xbox One or PlayStation 4 you will be able to upgrade to the Xbox Series X and PS5 versions respectively at no cost. If you choose to pre-order Far Cry 6, you will unlock access to the Libertad pack, which includes the Libertad outfit for Chorizo as well as the Discos Locos, a weaponized disc launcher.

Check out the video below showcasing some of what you can expect from Far Cry 6 and then tell us what you think. Far Cry 6 is slated to be released on October 7, 2021. Will you be picking it up?
