Ubisoft Release Far Cry 5 Trailer Showcasing The Story Mode

Far Cry 5

One of the big releases of 2018 is going to be the latest edition in the Far Cry series. Far Cry 5 seems to be taking us in a bold new direction, but after the criticism of the last few games, Primal in particular, this might not be such a bad thing.

Taking place in the US, Far Cry 5 is so far looking to be an excellent step up for the series. Once which is definitely needed to secure the long-term future of the franchise.

New features

In a report via DSOGaming, Far Cry 5 promises to introduce a whole new host of features. One of which will surely be of interest will be that it promises to include the biggest roster of customisable weapons and vehicles ever seen in the series. The game will also feature a full co-op mission play of the game from start to finish.

Of course, with this being Ubisoft, we are curbing our enthusiasm a little. So far, however, Far Cry 5 is looking pretty darn excellent.
