Gamers all over the world might have something exciting in store for them. Ubisoft, the famed video game company, is reportedly taking on a mammoth task by splitting its next Far Cry release into two distinct projects. If the rumor mill is anything to go by, the video game giant is simultaneously developing Far Cry 7 and a spin-off multiplayer game currently codenamed 'Project Maverick'.
The news was first brought to light by Insider Gaming's Tom Henderson and it comes as an interesting twist for Far Cry fans. The reports suggest that Ubisoft Montreal, a leading development studio within the company, is responsible for bringing these two projects to life.
What's even more thrilling for gaming enthusiasts is that 'Project Maverick' could arrive before the highly anticipated Far Cry 7. With an estimated release window set for April 2025, this multiplayer project promises to satiate the appetite of fans leading up to the release of the main entry in the franchise.
However, there might be more to 'Project Maverick’ than what meets the eye. The title was first mentioned in reports back in January. At that time, it was unclear whether these two releases would be separate entities or if Maverick would be part of Far Cry 7.
It is now suggested that 'Project Maverick' might indeed be a standalone title. One factor that strengthens the credibility of this possibility is Insider Gaming's solid track record with leaks and information about upcoming releases.
Being touted as an 'extraction shooter', 'Project Maverick' plans to dive headfirst into the current trend among multiplayer games. The action is said to take place in the icy expanses of the Alaskan wilderness, giving it a distinct charm. However, fans must also note that none of these speculations have been officially confirmed by Ubisoft as of yet.
While the gaming community eagerly awaits further news about these projects, Ubisoft remains tight-lipped. In the meantime, Far Cry aficionados can get their fix through Far Cry 5. With recent enhancements, the game has seen a surge in player activity on the Xbox Game Pass.
The presence of a spin-off in Ubisoft's Far Cry line-up adds an exhilarating twist. While it's natural for fans to wonder how 'Project Maverick' will impact the franchise’s future, nothing can be said for certain until Ubisoft unveils official information. The gaming company's silence leaves fans gripping the edge of their seats, eagerly awaiting the next developments in this beloved franchise. While electric with anticipation, the Far Cry community also holds its breath, hoping that these two new projects will meet, if not exceed, the standard set by previous games in the series.
