Here’s your introduction to Dani and the crew
As promised, Ubisoft have shown off some proper running and gunning in their upcomingFar Cry 6. We got a lot of the grim side of the revolution in its reveal trailer but today’s video shows off some of the levity—from a pet crocodile, to snarky one-liners to, yeah, that gun that shoots Macarena CDs. You’ll have options beyond guns as well, with a bit of stealth and deception to engage in. You can spot all that, and an introduction to protagonist Dani Rojas down here in the new video.
We’ve already gotten a good look at Yara’s dictator Antón Castillo in the first reveal trailer for Far Cry 6. Today we get a look at the guerrilla fighters. Ex-military member Dani Rojas just wants to get the heck out of Yara without dealing with the revolution, Ubisoft say. No points for guessing that Dani is going to wind up getting involved anyway.

There’s a more to dig into inUbisoft’s postfor those curious. Changing gear and outfits gives Dani different abilities and immunities. The little pet dog Chorizo we’ve seen isn’t just for looking cute. Chorizo can distract guards, whereas Cortez’s pet gator Guapo can chomp on them instead.
It seems like Colm is almost getting his wish forFar Crygoing back to some weirder and wackier elements. “I’d prefer this one to take some inspiration from the oft-forgotten Far Cry New Dawn,“he’s said. “A weird sequel toFar Cry 5, it took the supernatural elements that the series had flirted with in the previous couple of entries and put them front and centre. It was still grounded in a sort of reality, but you could also become a bandit-killing superhero that was able to double-jump and punch people into the air. It was terrific.”
There don’t immediately appear to be supernatural-y style abilities, but it’s definitely going a bit of goofy in with the reality.
Far Cry 6 is launching on October 7th on theEpic Games Storeand theUbisoft Store.
Oh yeah, and the one I’m sure folks will be talking about. Here’s that Macarena CD gun.
