When does Far Cry return?

Far Cry is an anthology franchise of first-person shooter games published by Ubisoft. The first game, Far Cry, was developed by Crytek to premiere their CryEngine software, and released in March 2004. As of 2025, the franchise consists of six mainline games, a standalone expansion, and several spin-offs. The Far Cry games do not have any significant shared narrative elements, but instead share a theme of placing the player in a wilderness environment where they must fight against one or more despots that control the region and survive against wild animals that roam the open spaces.
