Ubisoft remains tight-lipped about Far Cry 7, but recent casting call leaks hint at a thrilling new chapter. Reddit users uncovered details suggesting a narrative centered 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 dedicated following, whose resentment of the elite fuels his schemes. Supporting roles may be filled by John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan.
The most striking revelation is the potential setting: New England. This would mark a significant departure for the Far Cry franchise. While unconfirmed by Ubisoft, casting calls reportedly mentioned New England specifically, adding weight to the speculation. The diverse landscapes of Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and other New England states could provide a unique and compelling setting for the game's signature brand of mayhem.
Adding another layer of complexity, industry insider Tom Henderson previously hinted at a potential split release, with Far Cry 7 possibly divided into two separate games, both anticipated for a 2026 launch. As always, these are unconfirmed rumors, and the final product may differ significantly.
