Ubisoft Montreal’s next Far Cry game is a Stone Age-era open world game called Far Cry Primal, and it launches for PS4 and Xbox One on February 23, 2016. A PC release will follow in March, 2016.

Set in 10,000 BC, Far Cry Primal follows Takkar, "a seasoned hunter and the last surviving member of his hunting group." As players survive in the land of Oros, "they will have to craft weapons and tools partly from the bones of slain beasts, hunt for food, master fire, fend off fierce predators and face off against other tribes to conquer Oros."

The debut trailer shows a small tribe of four stalking, hunting, and killing a herd of wooly mammoths before they’re attacked by a sabertooth tiger. Outposts (occupied by humans), spreading fires, and character upgrades return alongside new features, such as dead prey attracting new predators with its scent. The key art also suggests a sabertooth tiger companion for Takkar.

It's set in the Mesolithic period.

 

[ekim]

Is this a full scale far cry or a cheaper title like Blood Dragon?

 

[MayMay]

Looks... nice. Definitely more excited for this than I was for FC3/FC4

Gonna keep my eye on this.

 

[Arafo]

Far Cry Primal will be available on PlayStation 4, XBOX One, and PC, coming out 23rd of February 2016. PC release on March 2016.

What?

 

[privitsan02]

You got my attention Ubisoft.

 

[Omega Kirby]

Well there it is

 

[Courage]

Cautiously optimistic.

If there's one thing Ubisoft is good at, it's ruining neat premises.

 

[Dennis]

This is it!

Far Cry Primal has come to deliver us out of the darkness.

February 23, 2016.

 

[iNvid02]

nope gotta zoom out a little more

 

[Forkball]

Can't wait to collect 100 mammoth tusks around the map.

 

[BiggNife]

Holy shit this is coming out in four months????????

Why did they wait so long to announce it?

 

[TriniTrin]

Hmm, looks interesting for sure! Who'd have thunk they'd make this kinda far cry game!

 

[joecanada]

can see the far cry elements in there. too early to tell if its different enough from far cry 4 to pick up right away... don't need to play far cry every year or so.

 

[Bizzquik]

Is this a standalone, full-length game?

Or a Blood Dragon-esque expansion?

 

[Alethebeer]

This announce was longer than a pregnancy damn

 

[Dennis]

Looks terrible. Brownest game ever. Piss filter confirmed.

Pre-Order cancelled.

[CambriaRising]

Interesting idea. Looking forward to seeing more of this.

 

[mreddie]

Was not expecting the release to be THAT close...

There's gonna be a delay for sure.

 

[Lys Skygge]

That was unexpected.

 

[Hoje0308]

Better be 4 player co-op.

 

[TetraxShards]

This is so weird that I actually love it.

 

[Steverulez]

Im a bit disappointed it appears to be single player only... I really liked the co-op in Far Cry 4 despite the awful system they used to make it work. (Leaving your game then re-entering in a separate online one, was weird and awkward)

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Anyone have a press release text so I can add it to the op?

 

[Gurish]

Wait so it's a full retail game?
And another game to Q1 2016, this is insane, never seen anything like it.

 

[kingwingin]

Rip legendary---

Can't wait to play this! Looks dope!

 

[Meader]

I'd be interested to know if this is a game on the scale of something like a main-line Far Cry, or if its more of a smaller title like Blood Dragon.

 

[StoveOven]

Same day as Mirror's Edge and Deus Ex? Looks cool, but I think I'll wait a little bit.

 

[antitrop]

Extremely cautious about this one. I'm trying to imagine how the Far Cry gameplay would transfer over to this setting in any interesting way and I'm coming up completely short.

 

[ryan299]

I love 3,4 and Blood Dragon but using spears and bow and arrows doesn't seem like a fun game to me.

 

[GeordieMark]

I hope they disregard any historical accuracy and stick some dinos in there.

Forget textbooks, use the Flintstones as the template.

 

[Darrenf]

Was not expecting the release date to be that close.

 

[Sinatar]

Is this a full scale far cry or a cheaper title like Blood Dragon?

Well the trailer shows retail boxes at the end, so I suspect it's a full game.

 

[GHG]

Fuck yes.

As long as there are no guns I'm there day 1.

 

[OldAsUrSock]

Holy shit this is coming out in four months????????

Why did they wait so long to announce it?

Maybe Publishers are learning that their early reveals have been detrimental because of graphical downgrades, broken promises, etc...

 

[Goldrusher]

Is this a standalone, full-length game?

Or a Blood Dragon-esque expansion?

It's full price with a retail release.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Can you play as a woman?

 

[loaf of bread]

Is this a standalone, full-length game?

Or a Blood Dragon-esque expansion?

It comes out in 4 months so I'm assuming short

 

[funkystudent]

Looks Wild.

 

[Dennis]

Was not expecting the release date to be that close.

Using only about three different colors for your game significantly speeds up development.

 

[Frostinferno]

Looks rough in some areas visually. I like the setting a lot though.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Can't anyone say that Ubi aren't exploring interesting settings.

Sadly, if you've played FC3 and 4, you probably have already played this.

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

This has to be a Coop game right?

 

[dead monkey uk]

Hope there are towers


Game looks promising, also surprised its coming out so soon.

 

[bombshell]

It's full price with a retail release.

Just because it has a retail version doesn't mean it's full price.

 

[VanWinkle]

I could definitely see myself getting this! I LOVE the idea. The world reminded me a lot of the little we've seen of Horizon Zero Dawn. Wonder who will have the better and bigger open world.
