Far Cry 5 Key Art Revealed: Confirms Modern Times, Religious Cult Theme, and Showcases Antagonist

Ubisoft unveil the official Far Cry 5 key art, revealing a healthy slab of information.

[-Foxtrot]

Yeah looks very like the Wild West to me guys...

/s

Looks and sounds awesome

[UCForce]

Oh, I'm going to enjoy this.

[FITgamer]

Yes I'm so hyped on this. FC is my favorite Ubisoft franchise and this setting sounds amazing.

[Mr Pumblechook]

Considering the times we live in, what's the betting that Ubisoft do the same thing they did with Assassin's Creed and make the bad guys based on Christians?

[UnHoly_One]

They might as well, Pumblechook, everyone else treats them like the bad guys nowadays.

[gokuss122002]

@Mr Pumblechook

That's because the whole world is controlled by Satan, and to be 'successful', you have to mock Christ (the one true God); and promote sin (the transgression of His law). In Ubisoft's defense, at least in regards to AC2, the Roman Cat.. I mean... AntiChrist system is the bad guy[s]; and secretly is the governs the Freema...I mean... Templars.

This will probably be my first FC game.

[sinjonezp]

Every far cry game has included some form of religious beliefs , I like the idea of this one using the neo Christianity (snake holders, etc) as the antagonist for this game. Judging the background could we see a setting around the Appalachian mountains , Virginia, Carolina, only question is the type of animals that they will use. We will see but very excited at this premise.

[moegooner88]

@Unholy_One, only a privileged blind fool would say something like this.

[pinkcrocodile75]

@Mr Pumblechook

I love that you brought up SATAN. They came up with Satan in the 1500's, great isn't it, sort of like the first religious DLC pack. The second has to be the None involvement of the vatican in WWII.

I love religions, (all of them) they are the best form of fantasy fiction known to man. Absolutely brilliant.

I love that in the Christian religion they came up with eating fish on a Friday as a way of ensuring peasants in Britain started eating more healthily. GENIUS.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

Well not afraid to say I was definitely wrong. I suppose in some respect I should have expected the more modern setting not only buy the trailer images but Far Cry in recent iterations has had lots of weapon variety with upgrades which isn't exactly a staple of the Wild West weapons.

[-Foxtrot]

Well that was my point

People didn't like Primal for two main reasons

1) It felt like a new IP with a FC formula...the Wild West theme would do exactly the same

2) Being set so far in the past meant a lack of weapons, vehicles, other features.

People want to move forward, they want more variety in weapons, vehicles and cool upgrades. Hell if you look in the art you'll see a plane...A PLANE. We might finally be getting more air vehicles.

[Erik7357]

Primal also used the same map from Far cry 4 and was just overall a piece of shit

It looked like at some point it was supposed to be far cry 4 dlc like blood dragon but they changed their mind and added more content.

Not a coincidence there is no season pass for far cry primal

[_-EDMIX-_]

???

I think you underestimate man's love of killing.

Trust me there is enough Weaponry During the period of the wild west to do a Far Cry game or really any game.

[CorndogBurglar]

I haven't played a FarCry game since the original.

This setting definately has my interest. I'm in.

[_-EDMIX-_]

I haven't played Far Cry since Far Cry 2 and I actually definitely recommend you play that because it brings such a breath of fresh air to the series.

That being said I'm actually excited to try this game out.

[notachance]

I hope the supernatural bits are creepier than past FCs, something along the lines of rural americans superstitions or the likes. Maybe ancient indian magic vs creepy religious cults? there's a lot of freaky setting potential in there

[_-EDMIX-_]

They actually could still have a western theme set and modern times similar to that show Justified or No Country for Old Men.

Western as a genre is not 100% actually exclusive to a specific time period.

A lot of the iconography and cinematography as well as tropes of that genre could actually be done in any time period.

I mean jokingly you're actually simply saying it doesn't look like what you know of a western to look like but then again you may not know all westerns in the first place.

The person that leaked the rumor of it being a western might have simply been looking at some of the themes of the actual game that mirror lots of modern westerns.

Maybe not specifically some exact time Period

[-Foxtrot]

I know the different types of Western

Point is...it's not what we were told which was WILD WEST

End of...

[IxWoodstockxI]

im guessing this is just another Anti-American propaganda game. Calling us all racist and psychos.

Edit: I'm still going to play it. I'm just not going to take it serious.

[Grap]

Well to be honest at that time you were.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

What? "at that time you were"???? What time would it be you are referring to? Please clarify ... I am curious.

[GUTZnPAPERCUTZ]

True, true. I think it's a brilliant idea for a Far Cry story! 'Merica!

[annoyedgamer]

You ever been to Asia? They are all racist. And thats right now. But its ok for them.

Watch Dogs 1 was based in the present and it had the same rather tiring message.

[Grap]

@Dlacy13g
Before Civil Rights Act.

[gums007]

Hey, who you calling "you"

[The7Reaper]

This is modern day the weapons are a dead giveaway especially the compound bow

[-Foxtrot]

Oh remember when they did Assassins Creed 3 and it basically was "We won't get involved in the war...we won't pick a side...we will show both sides...Conner is neutral"

Then...

"KILL THE REDCOATS....THE BRITISH ARE THE REAL EVIL ONES....DEATH TO THE BRITISH"

All that despite the fact in past games the codex pages showed us that George Washington used the Apple of Eden to win the war and he was a templar...yet suddenly Haytham and his other British goons were the real evil ones. Basically going against what THEY wrote to not offend Americans because heaven forbid they made the founding fathers be evil.

See what I mean...no one complained then....SORRY no Americans complained then because it was "F*** Yeah America*

[bluefox755]

So you're saying Americans are more offended by something anti-American than pro-American? Nah, can't imagine that being true.

[andrewsquall]

And the game was made in Canada so they had even less a reason to care if they offend Americans lol.

[-Foxtrot]

They cared about not making American look evil because they knew how the news media and people would react...they were basically scared incase it hurt sales. The fact they went against what they wrote and laid out in the past games shows you how desperate they were.

I mean wouldn't it have made more sense if instead of Haythams group at the start of the game it was George Washington and the other founding fathers as young adults. This would have showed you that being templars that they had a plan for an upcoming war for their "cause"...a cause which if it worked out (like it did) then they could control a future America THUS why in the present day setting the Assassins have died off and the Templars control almost everything, Abstergo being a MASSIVE world wide organization with influences in everything.

They start a war, they make the British look like the bad guys (when really they are full of Assassins), the Redcoats loose, the Assassins die out, George Washington is made the first President of the United States...a new world they control. It would have made SOOOOOO much sense.

If they did it that way then Haytham, which was an awesome character, could have been the main character.

[ShadowWolf712]

...the Villain was an actual Colonial General, dude. How is that not being even-handed?

[Gh05t]

Maybe you should go back and play it again... or just read up on the story. George Washington was not a "GOOD" guy in Assassins Creed 3. Not by any stretch, If I remember it was the "Patriots" who were going to exterminate the Natives on orders from Georgey boy himself. Maybe in your world that is not so bad but considering they are taking one of if not the greatest presidents America has ever had and turned him into Andrew Jackson one of if not the WORST presidents we have ever had.

Please correct me if I am wrong because I could swear that George freaking Washington is still the BAD guy throughout the whole freaking game, precisely to keep it on track with the past games.

[Angerfist]

I guess in AC3 they probably had to have the main character side with the winners. In the first Game they talk about the Horrors of the Crusade though, but not the jihad that made it necessary

[_-EDMIX-_]

@Fox - they should have not been making exceptions for the media in the first place they should have simply made what they wanted to make.

This is a piece of art
it is fiction
it is a video game that is being made for entertainment.

[1nsomniac]

Don't worry we have some of your white Christian extremist nut jobs over here in the UK too! It's not just America.

[bluefox755]

Yeah, I heard about the one that blew up that concert and killed a bunch people and kids. Disgusting if you ask me.

[andrewsquall]

Err, I don't think he was Christian.

[OCEANGROWNKUSH]

Religious extremist nutjobs originated in europe... america was founded for that exact reason, to escape religous persecution.

[bluefox755]

@redface Right, I forgot that the media covers it up when those evil, white Christians blow up concerts, shoot up malls and nightclubs in the name of their religion. My bad.

[annoyedgamer]

You should have thought about that statement before making it.

[moegooner88]

Lol at your disagrees. The American snowflakes are in tears probably. Keep these tears coming kids.

[1nsomniac]

The guy in Manchester wasn't white or Christian. It was a white Christian that went to the streets to kill the women MP (I forget her name) about a year ago... of course he wasn't a "terrorist"... because he's white....& a Christian...

[Liqu1d]

Or maybe it's just a game designed to be entertaining.

[annoyedgamer]

Ubisoft hasn't made games for "entertainment" in years. This will be a politically charged title. Believe me.

[boomtube1987]

@IxWoodstockxI would u rather play game with muslims and brown people as enemies like other 100 games or would u like to try something different for a change.

[JEECE]

Lol I like how you pretend like "Muslims and brown people as enemies" is a universal thing and fighting Americans/White people is never done in video games. You sound like a writer for Polygon or Kotaku who never plays video games and just regurgitates inaccurate stereotypes. I'd be curious to hear whether you can actually support your position with actual examples or if you'd just generally cite FPSs.

[moegooner88]

Please get out here with your common sense.

[ZombieGamerMan]

@ JEECE he's right, you know those Aliens in Prey, they're actually Muslims and brown. We just refused to see it but it was right there in front of us

[annoyedgamer]

Russians have been the boogiemen lately, not Arabs.

[rainslacker]

I believe anyone can be evil. Race, gender, religion, or sexual orientation are inconsequential to being a sociopath. I believe in equality, and as such, evil or good, the superficial stuff is mostly moot. Sometimes, people's evil side is motivated by all the things I listed, or sometimes nothing at all if they're psychotic, but I don't like to classify evil people into a larger group of people who aren't actually evil.

[Cy]

Exactly what I thought too. More French-Canadians lecturing Americans about racism crap from Ubisoft. Definite skip for me.

[_-EDMIX-_]

Are you seriously as narrow-minded and slow as to believe the entire game is a 100% depiction of 300 million Americans and not just a specific group of people?

Smh

These type of militia anti-government terrorist groups actually really exist in America it's not some lie or myth or fake propaganda they've actually already killed state troopers and police officers...

I don't really see the point of trying to paint another country with an entire brush with the assumption that they're trying to paint another country with an entire brush

For god sakes there's not even a single hint that they're simply assuming this about every single last American when on Earth has gaming become this slow where the users are not able to fully comprehend the game about specific people is not a representation of 300 million?

So if there was a video game about police officers in America are you going to say you can't believe they're making a video game that depicts 300 million Americans as police officers? I mean using that logic are you even smart enough or intelligent enough to even understand any game in the first place if this is the type of assumption you have? 😂😂😂

[2pacalypsenow]

Europe and Asia are the most racist places in the world. But since eveyone loves to hate the United states, they act like they are the most racists.

Just attend a soccer game in Spain where they throw bananas on the field and the act like US is racists.

[Ashunderfire86]

Good play it and don't take it seriously.

[_-EDMIX-_]

So the truth?

Buddy you can't keep trying to call everything "propaganda" that takes a peek at American culture from The View you don't like

I love being an American but I'm also not going to pretend that this is not a concept that doesn't exist in this country simply to make your feelings feel better.

In my state of Florida we have a really bad militia problem in some of these Outlaws have actually killed state troopers and have armed themselves and are actually trying to fight the government they basically are a domestic terrorist group in this state. But you have to understand that those type of anti-government terrorist militias actually exist in other states as well.

So that isn't propaganda that is real you could actually look that up for yourself as opposed to getting your feelings hurt by facts

so were they supposed to sugar coat it to make you feel better? Is this what Gaming's become? Where any single time somebody has a specific view they want to convey they now need to alter it because you're getting emotional about a damn video game?

So what do you mean by "calling us?" I mean you would basically assumed this game is generalizing the whole damn country which doesn't make any sense do you not have enough common sense to realize it is simply depicting a specific type of people that exist in this country and not the entire country itself? Seriously I know you're not this slow as to believe the game is saying 300 million Americans all are doing this 😂😂😂

[foaby]

Haha, it will be fun shooting stupid fucking american rednecks. Defenitly gonna buy this game

[GUTZnPAPERCUTZ]

Hell Yeah! Friday will be interesting, Im all aboard!

[DashArrivals]

I'm extremely excited for this game. Very pumped for the game reveal

[MasterCornholio]

Better not make any red neck jokes in front of those guys or it will be your last supper.

[GUTZnPAPERCUTZ]

I like it

[bluefox755]

So...Outlast 2? Meh, I was interested with the Wild West thing, but not so much this.

[-Foxtrot]

Outlast is a horror game

It's not an open world sandbox where you have a loaded arsenal and can ride cars, boats, planes, ride gliders while coming up with a hundred ways of killing your enemy at outposts.

[bluefox755]

I'm talking about the premise, not the genre and mechanics. I'm aware they are very different game types.

[Relientk77]

Wanna see the reveal trailer, not sure if I want this

[GTgamer]

i guess far cry 3 was the only unique box art they could think of because now all we getting is a guy sitting in the middle with other characters around.

[TheCommentator]

It's mocking The Last Supper, actually, because this is a religious cult. You could insinuate from this picture alone that he leads his followers to believe he's the reincarnation of Christ.

Didn't you even read the article?

[GTgamer]

I get that I'm just saying it's not original I can name a lot of imitations of the last supper but I can't show you one photo with a guy sitting on a beach with a guy buried in the sand.

[TheCommentator]

Sorry bud, but I'm still a bit confused. You originally said that all we were getting was a guy sitting in the middle with other characters around. That doesn't sound like you get the meaning behind the imagery. It looks like The Last Supper to communicate the nature of the antagonist. TBH, Vaas sitting with that guy told just as much about his character as this image does for Far Cry 5.

[GTgamer]

Actually I got the meaning as soon as I looked at it but still doesn't change the fact that it's still the villain sitting in the middle :/

[ziggurcat]

Clearly you're unfamiliar with Art History... because it's referencing one of the most famous works of art.

[GTgamer]

No duh but I'm comparing the similarities with it and far cry 4 art which doesn't look that different at even if they thought capturing the last supper was clever.

[OhReginald]

cool

[andrewsquall]

Very similar to the artwork of the villain from Far Cry 4 with that shot though. (not even sure that is the main villain here but it sure looks like it).

[DashArrivals]

Of course it's the main villain. It's obvious. I'll eat someones hat if it's not ;-)

[dumahim]

The teaser showed a lot of flat open ground, making me think Iowa or something. Montana is not very flat, is it?

[GUTZnPAPERCUTZ]

No, it's not. Mountains everywhere but also flat planes. There are 4 teaser's one is in the forest on a mountain side

[dumahim]

Ok, thanks. Knew about the mountains, but didn't think there were plains.

[TheCommentator]

I think I just found The Most Interesting Man in the World! Stay thirsty...

[yay111]

As long as its modern times I can stomach it jumping on the 'wild west' hype

[mixelon]

Every time a far cry comes out I end up wondering about a DLC/spinoff with dinosaurs. First we get FC3 and blood dragon which was amazing but not quite it. Then we get FC4 and primal, which is similarly close but not quite..

If FC5 manages to be the FC that finally gets Dinos I'll be happy. I'd love some "The Hills Have Eyes, but oh shit! dinosaurs!"

[FunAndGun]

Haven't played a Far Cry game in a long time, but this premise is something different and could be interesting.

[JEECE]

Can't wait to see the "this game is dumb because it's about religion and religion is stupid" lefties and the "this game is anti-christian, anti-american, and anti-white" right-wingers argue past each other about this game, just like they did with BioShock: Infinite.

[TheCommentator]

Those are actually the two groups you play as in TDM. 😁

[MrSwankSinatra]

Sorry, but if anything just by looking at the cover art I can already tell this game is gonna be boring as shit, at least BioShock Infinite was unique. this looks like the same old tripe shit we always get from ubisoft. Sorry, but this game is definitely no for me.

[Kalebninja]

yeesh, i really hope the protagonist isnt black, i cant imagine the backlash if they go down that path.

[MilkMan]

Man, this game couldn't even be more appropriate for the times we living in. Can't wait to start "handling business on these bad hombre's"

[Rob_Ko]

looks fucking cool, can't wait. Every Far Cry except Primal was a good game

[CrimsonWing69]

Yee-Haw Buckaroos *Pew* *Pew*

[Cy]

Nice to see them taking risks by making their antagonists white, Christian, patriotic Americans. Truly, Ubisoft can always be counted on to push the envelope for the sake of freshness and realism.

[Gh05t]

wow I almost missed the sarcasm in that until you added the "realism" part at the end.

[yeahokwhatever]

Apparently Ubi doesn't have the balls to make a game about actual modern terrorist religious groups.

[Pandamobile]

Have you missed the tens of dozens of games released in the past decade that have you shooting endless hoards of arab terrorists/OPFOR/insurgents/mi litias?

Or just unaware that these sorts of cults and ideologies exist on the US, like Waco or the Oklahoma City bombings, that are ripe for narrative exploration?

[Gh05t]

Oklahomo City Bombing was done by two people not a cult who hated the government over what happened in Waco . Even Waco was a group of 7th Day Adventists sect (The end is near, types) who were raided for weapons charges (Because they had nothing else but just knew something bad had to be going on, much like Ruby Ridge) They hadnt been charged or known to hurt/harm anyone...

Really if you are going to give examples of cults who kill people how did Helter Skelter, Charles Manson or the Chicago Rippers, or Order of the solar temple (although I think they only killed themselves) or Freaking Jim Jones and Jones Town... Plenty to choose from.

[_-EDMIX-_]

@Gh-did you seriously try to make up an excuse to try to defend terrorist? Please get out of here with this crap!!!

They are terrorist in this country!!!!

Cherry picking in the picking at the examples given is completely irrelevant and a waste of time especially if you fully understand that these terrorist groups still exist in America today

We have a bunch of religious cults that do this type of crap in this country still

The absolute vast majority of terrorist attacks done in America are actually done by American citizens

[Gh05t]

@EDMIX

"did you seriously try to make up an excuse to try to defend terrorist?"

Do you seriously not have a high school reading level... I didn't make an excuse for anyone. Everything I said was correct, and verifiable.

What cult did McVeigh join before OK City Bombing? I never said he wasn't a terrorist because that is EXACTLY what he and Nicolas where

How many people did the Branch Davidian's in Waco Kill before the firefight with the ATF and siege with the FBI? What terrorist activity had they committed prior to the raid on Mount Carmel? What was the purpose of the group from a "terrorism" perspective (since you claim they were one)? He was "Suspected" of stockpiling illegal guns, but that doesn't make a group a "terrorist" organization. All accounts of "terrorism" where post/apart of ATF raid.

So you can feel free to pound sand just because you dont like that I would prefer we choose to keep to the FACTS rather than throw examples out flippantly.

"They are terrorist in this country!!!!"

No one said there wasn't and I gave plenty of American examples. (Again learn to read)

"The absolute vast majority of terrorist attacks done in America are actually done by American citizens"

Again I never said anything about this, you are literally arguing points that I never made and assuming you know my stance on issues because you didn't learn reading comprehension in school.

I didn't make any points other than the examples given where wrong, I said why, and then gave more relevant examples.

[_-EDMIX-_]

.. except people like this actually still exist in America soooooo yea

[gangsta_red]

Can't go wrong with the old cliche of southern american, religious, nut jobs.

[fatbastard11]

Montana borders Canada

[annoyedgamer]

I'm sure they will have some anti-American theme. The image reminds me of the political twists from Watch Dogs. Poking fun at anti-government and gun owners.

[franwex]

Everyone pokes fun at those people, even themselves purposely too. Those people do not represent America as a whole either; so it is not Anti-American.

[DashArrivals]

MAN, I'M EXCITED. Can't wait to play this at MAXIMUM DIFFICULTY :-D ... Normal is a dead set joke. Even Hard is kind of crappy and ultimately easy with Far Cry games.

[Hugodastrevas]

Can't wait for them to shit all over the 2nd amendment and portray christians as rednecks. /S

I was actually excited with the idea of a Wild West setting, this just seems retarded. No purchase.

[S-Word]

I knew it was going to be shit. I mean it's an Ubisoft game so I'm not surprised. They've been ruining their franchises this entire gen.

[MegaMohsi]

After The division, I'm #neveragainubisoft

[its_JEFF]

I'm kinda even getting a Bioshock Infinite vibe... with the American flag and the character, in the middle, looking like a Comstock like character.

[fluxmulder]

Redneck Rampage 3?

[Cy]

Anyone wanna take bets on the protagonists race? I'm gonna guess it starts with a 'b' and ends with a lack of creativity.

[DashArrivals]

Who gives a crap. You don't even know the story yet

[FunAndGun]

Anyone wanna take bets on who cares about race in a video game?

I'm gonna guess it starts with a 'C' and ends in a 'y' the hell does it matter.

[-Gespenst-]

Where were you for like the last decade of video game history during which the vast majority of video game protagonists were white males? If under a dozen games with black protagonists is a sign of creative stagnation, then thousands of games with white male protagonists MUST also be a sign of creative stagnation - an even more certain sign of this in fact.

Perhaps you want Ubisoft to go against market trends rather than pander to them, which is fair enough, but I suspect you didn't complain once in the last decade when yet another game with a gravel-voiced white male protagonist was released, a creative decision ALSO strongly determined by the market - an example of pandering to and massaging your audience.

[QUIMICOMORTAL]

Huh! I wasnt too much interested on this, but if you can kill cult leaders I'm in!

[Kurdishcurse]

Wooow. So years ago they did a survey on what fans want for their next game. There were about 6 choices i think? Eitherway a dinosaur setting completely obliterated the other choices in votes, INCLUDING the western and primal caveman setting. Unless theyre saving the best far cry for last, i dont see the point of this crap. They are talented enough to make a dino game. Infact, i would say they are the only ones that would get a dino fps formula right, so whats the problem ubi? Freakin greedy hacks.

[Psychotica]

Well I will wait until I see more before I judge it. I just hope they can do this without being offensive to peoples religious beliefs.

[Razzer]

Same here.

[Ilwrath]

Based off this art, I'm gonna guess you spend a lot of time in-game listening to Mumford & Sons and drinking craft bears.

[Tzuno]

I am more interested in gameplay, hope it's good an fresh.

[arkard]

The antagonist is probably female that went through gender change and identifies as a male. Gotta appease the SJW's yet.

[lazyboyblue]

Cool Daniel Bryan is in the game.

[RabbitFly]

I am sad. I was hoping that the rumors were true. Especially after it was revealed that the film crew in Montana really was for Far Cry 5.

Religious cults and such are interesting for sure, but we have so many modern shooters. While it is so far between western shooters. Yea RDR 2 is not that far away, but we haven't really had any westerns since RDR 1.. I would have been able to live with 2 within a year.

[bluefox755]

By the look of those haircuts, it looks more like a hipster cult TBH. The flag and guns are "ironic", lol.

[Angerfist]

Straight white Christians, happy Families.

Yeah, Ubi is playing it as safe as possible with the SJW crowd. Just compare this to Watch Dogs 2 which was full of characters that looked like they all jumped out of weird Twitter bubble

[Gwiz]

So a company based on all religions and beliefs yet only pointing out one religion?.
XD.. yeah great company policy

[_-EDMIX-_]

Their job is also to create art

so are you suggesting they alter someone's artistic design to fit some sort of snowflake believe the make you feel safe?

I'm sorry but I wouldn't feel comfortable with any company creating
a movie
a show
a book
a game or any type of medium if their policy was the altar artistic work to fit some sort of agenda for god sakes just let this be a damn game as opposed to trying to interject your stupid beliefs into it to make you feel better.

So what's your solution? Every time someone makes a game a company representative comes along and must alter it to fit a specific narrative based on the company?

Smh

Is this seriously how you want your games to be made?

This game is only focused about a specific type of extremist , in no way shape or form that they need to now go around and also talk about every other extremist just to make you feel better.

This game is not a depiction of every single last extremist group in the entire damn world, it is just specifically about one extremist group.

I mean you're literally trying to say just to make you feel better about your stupid emotions they should go out of their way to also explain that other groups are just as bad when it's completely irrelevant.

They're only pointing out one religion in this game because that's it central focus it doesn't mean it's some sort of conspiracy theory to try to pretend as if other extremist groups don't exist, I mean while you're at it you might as well say every documentary about a specific mobster is also trying to say other Mobsters don't exist for god sakes is this how slow people in gaming have become?

[Gwiz]

In a decaying society, art, if it is truthful, must also reflect decay. And unless it wants to break faith with its social function, art must show the world as changeable. And help to change it. ~Ernst Fischer~

I wasn't even talking about what they should do or what I think they should do.I'm just pointing out the irony.
The one that got really sensitive here is you mate.

[BadElf]

Very excited it isnt the same ol crazy Mongolian evil dudes that try to kill you.

This looks great because of the new feel. Can't wait

[_LarZen_]

I think I'm gonna enjoy this game.....allot.

[quent]

Is this just going to be a wildlands reskin with new story based npc added, is what I'd like to know

Also how long has FC5 been in development compared to wildlands

[Kluv]

Trump is the final boss.

[opinionated]

So hipster comstock?

[Samorodnitsky]

vvcvcvcv

[Segata]

oooh a religious evil cult. Where do they come up with such original ideas! *sigh*

[Gheritt_White]

Prediction: the entire 'free speech/anti-censorship' crowd will cry about FarCry 5's violence against rednecks & call for a ban or boycott.

[Liqu1d]

I won't, I think the religious cult theme is cool but there are a lot of people triggered over it for some reason.

[MONOLITHICIDE]

and look at that. the hidden agenda is already working the fools. arguing. its clearly a stab at american culture and portraying state militias as crazy.

[xenz]

Well, lets be honest here. Every Far Cry game has had a white antogonist, so I dont understand why people are being so salty? Is it because he's a white, christian american? Would it be better if he was british maybe? Or African?

The game looks interesting to me, thats all I care about to be honest.

[iofhua]

I don't like the portrayal of the "bad guys" in this game. It looks like MSM conditioning millennials to shoot patriots and Christians.

I wonder if this is going to be the new thing for shooters now? Replacing all the nazi and zombie themes with US patriots?

IMO we have extreme leftist liberal groups like BLM and antifa to thank for this. Ubi is only doing this because they know people are going to buy it.

[pyroxxx]

Looks great

[VersusDMC]

When I saw that first pic all I could think of was the TV show Justified. Hopefully it's like that show in tone.

[leeeroythe3rd]

Keep on trying to social program children with propaganda. The chaos of the world today is a product of 20+ years of the same effort

[curtis92]
