UPDATE:

We've heard back from Ubisoft PR, who has clarified to us that this was simply a "throwback post" and not a tease for anything.

http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/...s-teasing-something-related-to-far-cry-3.aspx

Yesterday, Ubisoft posted on their Facebook page a picture of an island saying "an island we never really left".

The island is from Far Cry 3 and I wouldn't be surprise if Ubisoft were to announce a prequel to it with the infamous Vaas as a main character. Or a remaster.

What do you think?

Tell me the definition of insanity if old.

Doubt it'll be this year with a new Ass Creed coming after a hiatus.

 

[Mr.Deadshot]

Remaster?

I hope not. But I am fine with sequel/prequel to FarCry 3.

 

[Josemsar]

Insanity means making the same game over and over expecting more people will like it.

Yeah... English not my main language... xD

 

[Some Nobody]

Almost sounds like a remaster tbh. But FC5 got soft-confirmed months ago, right? It's almost a given to appear at UbiE3.

 

[13ruce]

Would be cool AF they hyped up Vaas like crazy for 3 but he only had a few scenes and lines....

8/10

 

[BY2K]

Far Cry 3-2?

 

[iMax]

That's the Far Cry 3 art, right?

[wesleyshark]

I'm down for a new far cry. I'm not down for a remaster.

 

[TriangularDuck]

Whoa, hold the phone.
Ubisoft is making a sequel?

 

[strafer]

I hope he traps some more asshole teens.

 

[DJwest]

I'm down for a new far cry. I'm not down for a remaster.

My thoughts, exactly.

 

[Oregano]

Far Cry 3: Instincts.

 

[kevin1025]

Doubt it'll be this year with a new Ass Creed coming after a hiatus.

They released Far Cry 3 and Assassin's Creed III in the same fall, same with Far Cry 4 and Assassin's Creed: Unity.

 

[100%TrophyMaster]

My guess is that this would be a remaster of Far Cry 3.
I'd rather have a new story anyway for a new Far Cry

 

[Lucifon]

Far Cry 3: Instincts.

I'd frigging love that, the only Far Cry announcement I would enjoy this year.

 

[Hazardous Metal]

If this is in any way related to Far Cry 3... please please please. Best game in the series by far, would love to revisit it.

 

[Zepp Twofist]

Vaas returns as a Mark IV Cyber-Commando.

 

[b0uncyfr0]

Yesss...More Vaas please.

 

[Josemsar]

I'd frigging love that, the only Far Cry announcement I would enjoy this year.

No Far Cry 4: Blood Dragon. Now with MechaYetis and TurboElephants????

 

[Oregano]

I'd frigging love that, the only Far Cry announcement I would enjoy this year.

They can even do a terrible Vengeance downport for Switch.

 

[RAWRferal]

1080p60 locked remaster on Pro for £30 or less and I'm there.

Spoiler

Dreams are cool.

 

[GLAMr]

So... More awesome gameplay, graphics, acting and sound ruined by a terrible, racist story?

 

[TannerDemoz]

Just make another Blood Dragon ffs

Best entry yet, which is hilarious considering it's so tongue-in-cheek

edit:

No Far Cry 4: Blood Dragon. Now with MechaYetis and TurboElephants????

This guy gets it!

 

[gdt]

Seems like a remaster.

 

[sixteen-bit]

far cry: playerunknown's battlegrounds

 

[jediyoshi]

I don't buy it, their facebook page is a bunch of one off images of older games with similarly ambiguous/meaningless one liners.

 

[oti]

A remaster would be super lame.

far cry: playerunknown's battlegrounds

But this would be super AWESOME.

I don't buy it, their facebook page is a bunch of one off images of older games with similarly ambiguous/meaningless one liners.

Yeah, me neither. I do expect a new Far Cry this year though.

lol. ubisoft in a nutshell.

[Marcel]

I mean, OK. Is Far Cry 3 actually that beloved still, enough to warrant a remaster/remix/definitive edition?

 

[Rellik]

Loved Far Cry 3 so I'd love to return to that island.

 

[BrettHeazy]

This is a little confusing, I can't see a new game being announced and a FC3 remaster?... nah i'm alright.

 

[Snkfanatic]

Ah nice, I was thinking it's about that time for another one. Look forward to seeing what it is. Kinda want to reply 4 but just so much else to play right now.

 

[Shiggy]

They are preparing for the Vivendi buyout, aren't they?

 

[TannerDemoz]

I'm surprised no one's mentioned a Switch port – is that unlikely?

 

[Gemüsepizza]

I don't buy it, their facebook page is a bunch of one off images of older games with similarly ambiguous/meaningless one liners.

This seems more plausible tbh. I doubt that they will return to the FC3 setting, and personally I would like to see something new. FC3 and FC4 already felt very similar.

 

[ScientificPizza]

Going back to the same island is super uninteresting to me. Like Vaas was *okay*, but he wasn't really that amazing that I want to revisit his story, and every other character in that game is just garbage

The island itself was fine, but it's not like there's really much more you could do with it

I'd rather Far Cry just go away for awhile and find itself again. 3 was fantastic when it came out, but by the end of 4 I was already super sick of that style of game

I'm surprised no one's mentioned a Switch port – is that unlikely?

Maybe, but I don't see why they would do it at all. It's almost five years old and it doesn't have anywhere near the same amount of reverence or current interest that Skyrim has

 

[Real_Madrid]

I would buy a remastered Far Cry collection.

But seeing the recent Ubisoft trend it will probably be an MP focused version of Far Cry.

 

[Fliesen]

Ubisoft open world?

... they tickle my completionist bone like no other game.
I'd triple dip on that remaster, but i'd much rather have a solid prequel.

Just don't do some Pre-sequel thing where Vaas starts off as the kindasorta good guy.

 

[Lucifon]

No Far Cry 4: Blood Dragon. Now with MechaYetis and TurboElephants????

Wasn't a fan of 4 but I'd probably play that!

 

[jon bones]

lemme get dem Switch remasters

 

[Djostikk]

lemme get dem Switch remasters

It will never happen on Switch.

 

[Eolz]

From what I can read, it's just some basic marketing message on a slow news day.
Not teasing anything at all...

 

[E-flux]

They should remaster the only good far cry, which is far cry 2.

 

[Hux1ey]

They should remaster the only good far cry, which is far cry 2.

Never played the first one then?

 

[PantsuJo]

Yeah... English not my main language... xD

It should be the first post, honestly.

 

[Shredderi]

It's almost definitely nothing but damn I would take more Vaas. He was criminally underused in FC3.
