Rumor: New Possible Details About the Plot and Setting of Far Cry 7

by Max Feb 27,2025

Ubisoft remains tight-lipped about Far Cry 7, but recent casting leaks hint at a thrilling new chapter. Reddit users suggest a plot centered on a fierce power struggle within the affluent Bennett family, mirroring the dramatic tensions of HBO's "Succession."

Leaked character names include Layla, Dax, Bry, Christian, Henry, and Christa Bennett. The antagonist appears to be Ian Duncan, a conspiracy theorist with a large following whose animosity towards the elite fuels his schemes. John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan are also mentioned, possibly as significant supporting characters.

The most surprising detail is the potential setting: New England. This would mark a first for the Far Cry franchise. While Ubisoft hasn't confirmed this, casting calls reportedly mentioned New England directly, lending credence to the rumor. The diverse landscapes of New England's six states (including Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts) offer a unique and compelling environment for the series' signature brand of action.

Adding another layer of mystery, industry insider Tom Henderson previously speculated that Far Cry 7 might be divided into two separate games, both potentially launching in 2026. As always, these are unconfirmed rumors, and the final game may differ significantly from these early leaks.
