Rumor: New Possible Details About the Plot and Setting of Far Cry 7

Ubisoft remains tight-lipped about Far Cry 7, but whispers of a casting call leak are circulating online, hinting at the next chapter's plot. 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."

The leaked cast includes family members Layla, Dax, Bry, Christian, Henry, and Christa Bennett. A prominent antagonist is rumored to be Ian Duncan, a conspiracy theorist with a dedicated following, whose resentment of the elite fuels his ambitions. Supporting characters reportedly include John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan.

The most surprising detail is the potential setting: New England. This would mark a significant departure for the Far Cry franchise. While unconfirmed by Ubisoft, casting call references to New England lend credence to the rumor. The region's six states – including Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts – offer a compelling, historically rich environment for the series' signature brand of mayhem.

Adding another layer of mystery, industry insider Tom Henderson previously speculated that Far Cry 7 might be divided into two separate releases, both potentially arriving in 2026. Until official confirmation from Ubisoft, these details remain speculative, and the final game could differ significantly.
