After Monster Hunter, it’s the turn of Ubisoft’s legendary Far Cry license to take a big step forward and create an event that fans shouldn’t miss.
Capcom’s Monster Hunter saga and Ubisoft’s Far Cry have nothing in common except for this year. The two successful licenses will be 20 years old in 2024! Yes, the first installment of FC, then developed by Crytek, was released in 2004. Since then, the water has flown under the bridges, Ubi fully manages the franchise and 12 games have been released – including the spin-off. Such an anniversary is worth celebrating and there will be special offers on the various works for ten days. But another event is getting closer and closer.
Far Cry 7 announced for the 20th anniversary of the license?
“Far Cry opened on March 23, 2024, which means next week it will be 20 years since Jack Craver washed up on the shores of a tropical paradise filled with enemy mercenaries. To celebrate, all games in the franchise will benefit from a discount of up to 85% on the Ubisoft Store, Steam and other online stores. And that until April 3rd – the date depends on the platforms » we can read about it on the Ubi website. And in fact, the start of promotions, the amount of the discount and the titles offered vary from platform to platform. As mentioned, this applies to the Ubisoft Store and Steam, but also to the PlayStation Store and the Xbox Store.

At the same time, Ubisoft announces a special 20th anniversary livestream for Thursday, March 21st at 6:00 p.m. (French time). This meeting will be an opportunity for developers “Share anecdotes and memorable moments from the series’ history”. A look behind the scenes of the iconic saga, which is also rewarded with Twitch Drops. Gifts offered to those who watch the event live on the platform.
A suitable place to announce Far Cry 7, the rumored multi-FC game or a new Blood Dragon? No, you can forget that. Like Capcom, which denies any information about MH Wilds, Ubisoft is not ready to reveal the future of its saga in the short or medium term. “We will not be announcing any new games or new content” declares account X of the license. At least it’s clear and obvious, and it’s impossible to be disappointed on the big day.
