Far Cry 7: Tangible info and first details leaked?

Ubisoft is holding back with official announcements on Far Cry 7 but a recently discovered casting could provide the first real clues.

Another important detail: the setting of the game could be New England. This region is mentioned several times in the casting descriptions, which indicates that Ubisoft is choosing the US East as the setting this time.

The Bennet family and a conspiratorial adversary

As always, such leaks should be taken with a grain of salt. Ubisoft has not yet responded to the leaked information. Even if they are true, elements of the game could still change. Previously, there was also repeated talk of from a countdown featureaccording to which the player only has a certain time window to reach the end. It remains unclear whether this is still the case.

Until Ubisoft Far Cry 7 officially announced, everything remains speculation. But the idea of playing in a New England characterized by internal power struggles sounds like an exciting new direction for the series.
