Far Cry 3 set for December 4th

After being pushed around a couple of times, Ubisoft has finally set a release date for Far Cry 3. The new, and hopefully solid release date for the dramatic action-adventure shooter is now December 4th, 2012. Yes, it sucks when games get delayed, but hey, at least it hasn’t been pushed into 2013.

The announcement below.

Today, Ubisoft announced that Far Cry 3 will be released on November 29 in EMEA and on December 4 in the U.S. Far Cry 3 will be available for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, the Sony PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and Windows PC.

In Far Cry 3, players step into the shoes of Jason Brody, a man alone at the edge of the world, stranded on a mysterious tropical island. In this savage paradise where lawlessness and violence are the only sure thing, players dictate how the story unfolds, from the battles they choose to fight to the allies or enemies they make along the way. As Jason Brody, players will slash, sneak, detonate and shoot their way across the island in a world that has lost all sense of right and wrong.

?We?re taking more time to create the best possible gameplay experience,? said Dan Hay, producer at Ubisoft. ?Far Cry 3 is a huge offering and we want every element of this insane, action-packed adventure to be of the highest possible quality for the players.?
