Considering Ubisoft Montreal’s open world shooter, Far Cry 2, is set to release on PC, Playstation 3, and Xbox 360 this fall, the narrative designer Patrick Redding shares details about the third Far Cry game and its likely African setting.
“For us Africa still has a huge amount of promise,”
“Let’s face it, jungle islands are probably less exciting as they were four years ago.”
“There are still things we want to do with the African setting, and I think it’s safe to say we’ll continue to explore it,”
“That said, we might find something new and compelling about the Antarctic setting that wants us to make the next game there, but honestly, we’e still at the preliminary stages.”

The original Far Cry was developed by Crytek and released for PC in 2004. Other verisons of the game were ported to Xbox 360, Xbox, and Wii by Ubisoft Montreal.
