Ubisoft confirms plans for Far Cry multiplayer

For years, there have been leaks surrounding multiplayer Far Cry spin-offs. So far, none have come to market, but Ubisoft did recently confirm that moving forward, the Far Cry IP will be moving in a multiplayer direction. 

GameFile and VGC report that Ubisoft CEO, Yves Guillemot, recently spoke at a conference. When the subject of Far Cry came up, he explained the plan to focus further on multiplayer moving forward, and to make sure multiplayer features are more predominantly pushed in marketing.

This lines up with leaks from previous years, which claimed that a standalone Far Cry extraction shooter was in the works. Far Cry 7 is also believed to be deep into development at this stage and may see the series switch over to the Snowdrop engine.

Far Cry 6 released in 2021, so we should be getting an official Far Cry 7 announcement next year.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
