That all inverse today as the developers pulled back the curtain and gave the world its first look at Far Cry half-dozen's gameplay. Of course, it was more often than not brusque clips of action and lots of people talking, but information technology did provide some intriguing details for series fans.

The latest Far Cry is set in Yara, a faraway isle that'due south been frozen 50 years in the past after a violent revolution cut information technology off from the rest of the world. Y'all'll play as a guerrilla fighter trying to take on the evil authorities running the island. That guerilla spirit is in full effect with the weaponry and vehicles you'll have at your disposal.

Don't wait to take pinnacle-of-the-line equipment when you lot enter a fight. Instead, you'll have to rely on black marketplace dealings and some good old-fashioned ingenuity.
