Is Far Cry 6 a Sequel?

Far Cry 6 Red Smoke

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.

Online Co-op Mode Available

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.

Likely No Local Co-op Mode

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.
