Far Cry 6 Release Date: October 7, 2021 Developer: Ubisoft Toronto Publisher: Ubisoft Series: Far Cry Platforms: PS4 PS5 Xbox One Xbox Series X Windows PC Google Stadia Genre: First-person shooter

Far Cry 6 is the sixth main installment in the Far Cry series, developed by Ubisoft Toronto. It is scheduled to be released on October 7, 2021 for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Windows PC, and Google Stadia.

It is set on the fictional Caribbean island-nation of Yara, which takes inspiration from Cuba, ruled by dictator Antón Castillo (portrayed by Giancarlo Esposito). After years of his iron-fisted rule, Yara has exploded into a revolution. The player controls new, customizable protagonist Dani Rojas, a revolutionary who embarks on a guerrilla war against Castillo's regime.

Dani slinks toward a Yaran military checkpoint. Note the ad-hoc red dot sight composed of a laser pointer and canned fish tin can which appears to have been inspired literally by a "How to Make a Red Dot Sight $3" Youtube video.
