Here is an official trailer for Far Cry 6, featuring glimpses of new weapons, vehicles, characters, and story elements.
As the title implies, Far Cry 6 is a sequel, but how connected is it to the previous titles? In general Far Cry as a series is pretty loosely connected, with each game taking place in vastly different locations and years. Here is a list of the series settings so far:
| Series Locations and Timeline | ||
|---|---|---|
| Game | Location | In-game Year |
| Far Cry | Micronesia (fictional South Pacific archipelago) | 2025 |
| Far Cry 2 | Central African State (fictional) | 2008 |
| Far Cry 3 | Rook Islands (fictional tropical archipelago) | 1985 |
| Far Cry 4 | Kyrat (fictional Himalayan country) | 2014 |
| Far Cry 5 | Rural Montana (in the fictional Hope County) | 2018 |
| Far Cry 6 | Yara (fictional country in the Carribean) | ??? |
With the series being so spread out in terms of both time and space, it's likely that Far Cry 6 will be a stand-alone story that gives reference to some of the past titles. To find out more about this topic, check out the guide below.
Here you can learn all about the characters you will encounter in Far Cry 6. These are the characters that have been revealed so far.
| Character | Voice Actor | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Dani Rojas | Male: Sean Rey Female: Nisa Gunduz |
The main protagonist who wanted to escape Yara, but got swept up in the guerilla movement. Can be either male or female. |
| Anton Castillo | Giancarlo Esposito | The main antagonist and dictator of Yara. |
| Diego Castillo | Anthony Gonzalez | The son of Anton Castillo. |
| Juan Cortez | Alex Fernandez | A veteran guerilla and inventor. Somewhat of a mentor to Dani. |
| Clara Garcia | Jess Salgueiro | An idealistic journalist that joined the guerilla movement. |
| Chorizo | - | An adorable dog with a modified wheelchair. (Amigo) |
| Guapo | - | A well-trained crocodile. (Amigo) |

The developers of Far Cry 6 have confirmed that the game will have a multiplayer mode similar to Far Cry 5. In Far Cry 5, you can invite one friend to your current playthrough who can join you throughout the entire campaign.
Unfortunately, if Far Cry 6 has the same exact multiplayer mode as Far Cry 5, you will be unable to play local co-op via split screen with a friend.
