"Earlier this year, a Far Cry multiplayer extraction game was reportedly rebooted, as resources were diverted to Far Cry 7. It's believed these are two different projects, with the extraction shooter being a standalone title. The extraction shooter apparently has an Alaskan setting as players attempt to survive the harsh environment, wildlife, soldiers, and other players. Far Cry 7 is thought to see players trying to rescue their family from a cult, potentially with a 24-hour real-world time limit."
Ubisoft plans to emphasize multiplayer elements in the Far Cry franchise to encourage longer-term player engagement. A Far Cry multiplayer extraction game was rebooted earlier this year while resources were shifted toward Far Cry 7. The extraction shooter is intended as a standalone project set in Alaska where players must survive harsh environments, wildlife, soldiers, and other players. Far Cry 7 is expected to center on rescuing a family from a cult and may implement a 24-hour real-world time limit, equating to three in-game days. Ubisoft intends to double down on open-world and live-service games despite recent setbacks.
