Ubisoft remains tight-lipped about Far Cry 7, but recent casting call leaks hint at a compelling storyline. Reddit users suggest the game will center on a fierce power struggle within the affluent Bennett family, mirroring the dramatic tensions of HBO's "Succession."

Leaked character names include Layla, Dax, Bry, Christian, Henry, and Christa Bennett. The antagonist appears to be Ian Duncan, a conspiracy theorist with a significant following, whose animosity towards the wealthy elite drives his ambitions. Supporting roles may be filled by John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan.
A particularly noteworthy detail is the potential setting: New England. This would mark a first for the Far Cry franchise. While unconfirmed by Ubisoft, casting calls reportedly mentioned New England explicitly, lending credence to the rumor. The diverse landscapes of New England's six states (including Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts) could provide a unique and exciting setting for the game's signature brand of mayhem.
Adding another layer of speculation, industry insider Tom Henderson previously hinted at a potential two-part release for Far Cry 7, both games possibly launching in 2026. Until official confirmation from Ubisoft, these details remain unverified, and the final game may differ significantly.
