?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.?
