Far Cry 6 will have an open world that feels alive, and in which the player is not the center of everything
Ubisoft wants to allow the player to move freely around Yara without always having to interact
Two months are left for the launch of Far Cry 6 , one of the last great premieres of this year again atypical of the industry that will seek to surprise users by introducing a lot of changes compared to previous deliveries. One of them has to do with its emerging gameplay, seeking this time that the protagonist is not the center of everything that happens in its open world.
“In Far Cry 6 we have been reinforcing the feeling of being in a concentrated open world that seems to be working on its own, ” explains Ben Hall, world director of development for FC6, in a chat with Gamereactor. “You are Dani Rojas, you are in this world and you are an inhabitant of Yara, but we did not want it to feel as if the world revolved around Dani. It was very important to make sure that there were other people and other things happening at the same time “, Add.
This can best be seen with the holstering system , which allows the player to keep their weapons and go unnoticed, as long as they are not restricted areas, choosing whether or not to interact with their environment. “So you may see the military harassing some of the guerrillas they have encountered and then you can choose if it is the right time to get involved and try to help those people,” he explains, adding that the risk can be rewarded. .
