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

Ubisoft remains tight-lipped about Far Cry 7, but a recent casting call leak offers intriguing hints about the upcoming title. Reddit users suggest the game's storyline will center on a fierce power struggle within the affluent Bennett family, mirroring the dramatic tension of HBO's "Succession."

Leaked character names include Layla, Dax, Bry, Christian, Henry, and Christa Bennett. A prominent antagonist is Ian Duncan, a conspiracy theorist with a dedicated following whose animosity towards the elite fuels his ambitions. Supporting roles may be filled by John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan.

The most surprising revelation is the potential setting: New England. This would mark a significant departure for the Far Cry franchise. While unconfirmed by Ubisoft, casting call references to New England strengthen this speculation. The diverse landscapes of New England's six states (including Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts) could provide a unique backdrop for the series' signature brand of mayhem.

Adding another layer of mystery, industry insider Tom Henderson hinted at a potential split release, with two Far Cry 7 games possibly launching in 2026. As always, these details remain unconfirmed, and the final game may differ significantly from these early leaks.
