Ubisoft has announced a new installment to its popular first-person shooter franchise: 'Far Cry 6.' Following up the last installment that takes place in Hope County, Michigan, Far Cry 6 transports players to Yara, a Caribbean island that's ruled by dictator Antón Castillo.

As the dictator readies his son to take over rulership, players will act as a guerilla fighter from Yara named Dani Rojas, who's goal is to put an end to the tyrannical regime. To take down the leader, players can recruit a team and find what they need to put together the artillery they'll need.

Far Cry 6 is expected to launch in February 2021, and will be available on [PlayStation 5](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xdefiant), [PlayStation 4](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/splitgate-2), Xbox One and Series X, Stadia, and [Microsoft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rainbow-six-extraction) Windows.
