Today, Ubisoft announced Far Cry 4, an open-world, first-person shooter that delivers the most expansive and immersive Far Cry experience ever.

In Far Cry 4, players find themselves in Kyrat, a breathtaking, perilous and wild region of the Himalayas struggling under the regime of a despotic self-appointed king.  Using a vast array of weapons, vehicles and animals, players will write their own story across an exotic open-world landscape.

?Following the success of Far Cry 3, we wanted to take the franchise to the next level and create a game that will surprise players and exceed fans? expectations,? said Dan Hay, Executive Producer.  ?Given the unique setting, we feel Far Cry 4 will stand out as a top first-person shooter and we?re eager to reveal more about the game in the coming months.?
