Far Cry 7 leaks reveal non-linear story & Nintendo Switch 2 version UbisoftDetails on the next entry in Ubisoft\u2019s Far Cry series seem to have leaked, including a new approach to storytelling and a Nintendo Switch 2 release. It\u2019s been nearly two years since the release of Far Cry 6, and Ubisoft hasn\u2019t said much regarding the series since then. There were reports around the game\u2019s launching claiming that Far Cry 7 would be a live-service title similar to Ubisoft\u2019s plans for the Assassin\u2019s Creed series. But while Assassin\u2019s Creed Infinity was officially announced last year, Far Cry\u2019s future remains a mystery. However, that may be changing. The first details of Far Cry 7 seem to have leaked, with two reports revealing story details and plans for a Nintendo Switch 2 launch. Far Cry 7 leaks outline 72 hour story and Nintendo Switch 2 plans The most significant info comes from Insider Gaming\u2018s Tom Henderson, which shared the game\u2019s \u201cProject Blackbird\u201d codename, intended Fall 2025 release window, plans to move away from the Dunia engine in favor of Snowdrop, and more. While Henderson stipulates that the game is still in development and details are subject to change, it seems Far Cry 7 will have a non-linear story that involves the player rescuing kidnapped family members from a conspiracy group known as the \u201cSons of Truth.\u201d The overall goal is to save everyone in a certain timeframe, with players able to choose what order to rescue them in. However, some can be killed, changing the way the story plays out. Perhaps most interesting are the new mechanics. First, the family needs to be saved within 72 hours, or 24 real-world hours. This time is, of course, not set in stone, and it seems players will be able to pause the timer by entering safehouse. Additionally, the report outlines a new interrogation mechanic in which players can try to gain information from enemies with varying results: \u201cSometimes the enemy will give up the information, sometimes they\u2019ll lie, stay quiet, or even sometimes escape.\u201d In response to Henderson\u2019s report, a separate insider claimed Far Cry 7 would be available at launch on the also rumored Nintendo Switch successor. While Far Cry 7 is still a ways away, and a lot could change between now and its release, this report seems like good news for Far Cry fans. Far Cry 6 received mixed reviews, with critics and fans generally finding it to be more of the same. This leak indicates a new direction for the series, which has played with linear and non-linear gameplay in the past, but not really to this extent. The timed element also shakes up the Far Cry formula in a series that sorely needs innovation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
