New Far Cry games release date, All upcoming Ubisoft projects, and more

Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has officially confirmed that multiple Far Cry projects are actively in development, providing a clear picture yet of the publisher's release pipeline.

The news has brought relief to fans, given the recent months of cancellations, studio closures, and restructuring. Essentially, Ubisoft has consolidated its major franchises under Vantage Studios, a newly created subsidiary backed by a $1.2 billion Tencent investment. This venture is going to focus on transforming Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six into "billionaire-dollar brands."In the section below, we take a look at all the details regarding upcoming Ubisoft games, including the Far Cry series.

Far Cry projects currently in development

Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot confirmed that two new Far Cry games are in development. It is likely that the first one is going to be Far Cry 7 (the mainline entry), while the other is believed to be Project Maverick, which is set to be an extraction-style multiplayer title set in the Alaskan wilderness. Far Cry 7 was initially scheduled to release earlier, but has been delayed. As per the leaks, its story will feature a conspiracist cult that kidnaps the protagonist's family.
