Ubisoft has just officially announced the existence of Far Cry 4 and that it will be available November 18 in the US and November 20 in the EMEA territories for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and Windows PC.

In Far Cry 4, players find themselves in Kyrat, a region of the Himalayas struggling under the regime of a self-appointed king. Players will use a vast array of weapons, vehicles and animals in this FPS adventure across an exotic open-world landscape.

“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.”

Customers who pre-order Far Cry 4 receive a free upgrade to the Limited Edition which includes Hurk’s Redemption, a series of three action-packed single-player missions featuring the popular character Hurk from Far Cry 3’s DLC.  The Limited Edition also includes Hurk’s signature harpoon gun called “The Impaler”. The pre-order is now available at all major retailers.  

Far Cry 4’s setting has been rumored for months now. It’s nice to have confirmation that it’s happening. Expect to see more of Far Cry 4 at next months Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3).
