It was recently revealed that a sequel to the smash hit Far Cry 3 (ingeniously titled Far Cry 4) is coming later this year and is set in the Himalayas, but a pre-order page that appeared online has shed a bit more light.

“Hidden in the majestic Himalayas lies Kyrat, a country steeped in tradition and violence. You are Ajay Ghale. Traveling to Kyrat to fulfill your mother’s dying wish, you find yourself caught up in a civil war to overthrow the oppressive regime of dictator Pagan Min.”

“Explore and navigate this vast open world, where danger and unpredictability lurk around every corner. Here, every decision counts, and every second is a story. Welcome to Kyrat.”

Far Cry 4 is set to be released on last and current generation consoles as well as PC and has a release date of November 18th.

My Judgment:

Civil war? Overthrowing of oppressive regime? Crazy and unpredictable environment? I do believe the plot sounds intriguing. Hell, I may even go as far as saying it sounds fascinating. Due to the quality that this series consistently churns out and the fact that the developers are claiming to try and top everything that has come before has me a little giddy.
