The leaked cast includes family members Layla, Dax, Bry, Christian, Henry, and Christa Bennett. A prominent antagonist emerges: Ian Duncan, a conspiracy theorist with a fervent following, whose disdain for the elite fuels his quest for power. Supporting roles may be filled by John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan.
The most surprising revelation? The potential setting: New England. This would mark a significant departure for the Far Cry franchise, venturing into uncharted territory. While unconfirmed by Ubisoft, casting call references to New England bolster this speculation. The diverse landscapes of Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and other New England states could provide a captivating and unique backdrop for the series' signature brand of mayhem.
Adding another layer of mystery, industry insider Tom Henderson previously hinted at a potential split release, with Far Cry 7 possibly divided into two separate games, both potentially launching in 2026. Naturally, all of this remains unconfirmed and subject to change during development.
