Rumor: New Possible Details About the Plot and Setting of Far Cry 7

by Liam Feb 28,2025

Ubisoft remains silent on Far Cry 7, but a recent casting call leak offers a glimpse into the potential storyline and setting. Reddit users claim the game will center on a fierce power struggle within the affluent Bennett family, mirroring the drama of HBO's "Succession."

Leaked character names include Layla, Dax, Bry, Christian, Henry, and Christa Bennett. The antagonist appears to be Ian Duncan, a conspiracy theorist with a significant following whose anti-elite sentiment drives his actions. John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan are also mentioned, possibly as important supporting characters.

The most surprising detail is the rumored setting: New England. This would mark a significant departure for the Far Cry series. While unconfirmed by Ubisoft, casting calls reportedly mentioned New England specifically, lending credence to the rumor. The diverse landscapes of New England's six states (including Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts) could provide a unique setting for the game's signature brand of mayhem.

Adding to the speculation, industry insider Tom Henderson previously hinted at a potential split release for Far Cry 7, with two separate games possibly launching in 2026. As always, these details remain unconfirmed, and the final product may differ significantly from these early leaks.
