The last game in the franchise Far Cry New Dawn made its way into the market back in February 2019, and it has been over a year that fans have heard anything from the company, however, the wait is finally over, if the leaks are anything to go by. Far Cry New Dawn was set 17 years after the final events of Far Cry 5, and the game returned with a new story where the community tried to build everything from scratch after “the Collapse” destroyed everything in Far Cry 5.

For the past few days, numerous leaks started circulating the internet, and when things finally got out of hands, Ubisoft was left with nothing other than acknowledging all the developments, which they did through a new teaser featuring the main boss of the imminent game.
