Leaked character names include Layla, Dax, Bry, Christian, Henry, and Christa Bennett. A prominent antagonist is Ian Duncan, a conspiracy theorist whose resentment of the elite fuels his dangerous ambitions. John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan are also mentioned, potentially as significant supporting characters.
The most surprising detail? The rumored setting: New England. This would mark a significant departure for the Far Cry series, venturing into uncharted territory. While unconfirmed by Ubisoft, casting call references to New England add weight to this speculation. The diverse landscapes of Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and other New England states could provide a captivating new environment for the series' signature brand of action.
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. Until official confirmation from Ubisoft, however, these details remain firmly in the realm of rumor and speculation. The final game may differ significantly from these early leaks.
