About Far Cry 5

Far Cry 5, developed by Ubisoft Montreal in collaboration with Associate Ubisoft studios, Toronto, Kiev, Shanghai, Reflections, Bucharest and Pune, is a first-person shooter set in a completely open world. Players will have the freedom of choice, wrapped in an immersive story with memorable characters, where they can experience Far Cry Moments: unpredictable and unforgettable moments in the game – like getting attacked by a bear while quietly fishing or being rescued by Boomer at just the right time. Players can play any way they want, including recruiting Guns for Hire, Fangs for Hire and a Friend for Hire, which allows players to play the entire game in co-op, a franchise first.
