Ubisoft reveals post-apocalyptic Far Cry New Dawn

Set in a post-apocalyptic Hope County, Montana (from Far Cry 5) quite a few years after a nuclear incident, Far Cry New Dawn is Ubisoft’s latest standalone non-mainline Far Cry title. Featuring all new protagonists, notably The Twins as seen in the key art, who are the leaders of Far Cry New Dawn’ Highwaymen and apparently want control of the area and resources all to themselves.

Of course as part of the more hopeful Prosperity group of survivors, players can build up their Homebase, recruit guns for hire, and take back their land and lives from the bad guys.

Far Cry New Dawn will launch on February 15th, 2019 for $39.99 for the PS4, Xbox One and PC. Have a look at the stylish first screens and the trailer below!

Far Cry New Dawn: Official World Premiere Gameplay Trailer | Ubisoft [NA]:

Today at The Game Awards, Ubisoft unveiled Far Cry New Dawn, the newest installment of the award-winning Far Cry franchise. Set in a breathtaking post-apocalyptic world, Far Cry New Dawn will release on February 15, 2019 for PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system, the Xbox One family of devices including Xbox One X and Windows PC. Players can pre-order Far Cry New Dawn now for $39.99.

Set seventeen years after a global nuclear catastrophe, Far Cry New Dawn brings players into a wildly beautiful and radically transformed Hope County, Montana. Life has begun to emerge from the chaos, but the survivors now face a new threat ? the merciless Highwaymen and their leaders The Twins, Mickey and Lou. Raised in a lawless frontier, the twin sisters and their band of scavengers live only for today and have descended upon Hope County to take all available resources. To push back this devastating threat, players must help the Survivors grow stronger, craft a makeshift arsenal and form unexpected alliances to fight for survival in a dangerous new frontier.

At the Homebase, players will prepare to face off against the threat of the Highwaymen. The Homebase, called Prosperity, is the stronghold of the Survivors. Here, players can craft makeshift weapons and vehicles and train their Guns for Hire ? including new and familiar faces. As players progress, they can upgrade the Homebase for more powerful weapons and gear. The Homebase is also a launchpad to Expeditions, where for the first time in Far Cry, the adventure is more than local. Set in memorable locations across the US, from wetlands to canyons and more, Expeditions drop players into unique locations where they must grab a package of valuable materials and get out, quickly.

Developed by Ubisoft Montreal with support from Ubisoft Shanghai, Ubisoft Kiev and Ubisoft Bucharest, Far Cry New Dawn is a first-person shooter set in a completely open world. The standalone sequel to Far Cry 5, Far Cry New Dawn thrusts players into a brilliant post-apocalyptic setting where they will encounter a dual threat ? The Twins, Mickey and Lou. Players can recruit an eclectic cast of Guns and Fangs for Hire, or a Friend for Hire for co-op play, to experience unpredictable, unforgettable Far Cry Moments where anything can happen.
