Ubisoft Announce Far Cry 2

Home : News : Far Cry 2 : News Story

The “legendary shooter” is set to return to Windows PCs in the springtime of 2008.

Ubisoft today announced that they are hard at work on a sequel to their award-winning shooter Far Cry. Far Cry 2 is being developed by Ubisoft’s Montreal studio and will launch in Spring 2008.

“Far Cry marked the beginning of a new era for shooters. An era of gorgeous graphics and of advanced artificial intelligence,” suggests John Parkes, EMEA marketing director at Ubisoft.

“We are confident that Far Cry 2 will have the same impact again on the FPS genre landscape.”

A teaser site has been erected but it does not currently contain much in the way of content. However, it does link to a weekly contest to win signed by the game’s development team.
