Be on the look out for lil dicks

Ubisoft has cut a new trailer for next month’sFar Cry Primal, which you can read about in-depth over atBrett’s previewfrom last month. The short of it:Far Cry‘s wanton violence contextualized in the brutal Stone Age instead of with some other weird conceit.

And here’s Takkar, who arrives in Oros with his Wenja tribe at risk because of the three warring factions fighting over the land. “They are being attacked by both the cannibals of the Udam tribe, led by the cruel warrior Ull, and the fire worshipers of the Izila tribe, led by the high priestess Batari.”

I’m a bit burnt out on the entire Ubisoft genre — it may never reach “Metroidvania” heights, but it’s still amazing to me how fundamentally and superficially similar so many of Ubisoft’s games are, especially because the wholeRayman/Child of Light/Valiant Heartsexploratory era seems to be over. And I didn’t findFar Crys 3and4as engaging as2already. But Ubisoft knows how to cut a trailer. This is stylish as heck, with nice purples and reds again adding something to the natural environment.
