Ubisoft has been asked about this all before, of course, and has always pointed to the fact the game's development cycle began three years ago - long before the world was gifted President Trump's daily Twitter tantrums and the rise of the "alt-right" movement. Others, albeit a small internet-dwelling minority, have said they do not wish to play a game in this series with a white, American enemy.
Since Far Cry 5's announcement in May there have been numerous think pieces mulling Ubisoft's choice of locale and antagonist (a magnetic cult leader named the Father who gathers followers to preach a doomsday ideology).įor a series defined by its sense of being a stranger in a strange land, some have argued the present day US is more than strange enough to fit the bill. After more than a decade, the series which has defined itself by inviting players to explore various weird and wonderful locales will next look inwards.Īnd what a time to do so. Far Cry 5 is the first game in Ubisoft's franchise to be set in the US.
