Crossing Eden
Hello, my name is Yves Guillemot, Vivendi S.A.'s Employee of the Month!
Ubisoft sent out polls for some buyers of FC4, included in that poll is possible locations for the next installment.

Seem like more realistic Far Cry locations, the other locations get a bit weird however.
One of the options also was a sequel to Far Cry 3:Blood Dragon.

The poll mentions potential real-world locations such as Peru and Alaska, plus historical settings such as the Vietnam War and a Spaghetti Western-style tale in late 19th Century America (Far Cry meets Red Dead!).
Seem like more realistic Far Cry locations, the other locations get a bit weird however.
Even more outlandish are ideas for "a Far Cry game where you can fight against or join vampires", or alternatively "a Mad Max-style post-apocalyptic world", or even "a Far Cry game set in the modern day on a Jurassic Park-style island with dinosaurs"
One of the options also was a sequel to Far Cry 3:Blood Dragon.
So, how likely is it that any of this will come true? Well, Ubisoft has a long history of polling Assassin's Creed fans in exactly the same manner - which year on year proves to be a fairly decent steer on what's next in the pipeline.
