Rumors swirl around the unannounced Far Cry 7, with a recent casting leak hinting at a thrilling narrative. Reddit users suggest the game will center on a fierce power struggle within the affluent Bennett family, drawing parallels to HBO's "Succession."

Leaked character names include Layla, Dax, Bry, Christian, Henry, and Christa Bennett. A prominent antagonist is Ian Duncan, a conspiracy theorist whose anti-elite sentiment fuels his ambitions. John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan are also mentioned, potentially as significant supporting characters.
The most surprising detail is the potential setting: New England. This would mark a first for the Far Cry franchise, offering a stark departure from previous locations. While Ubisoft remains silent, casting call references to New England bolster this speculation. The diverse landscapes of Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and other New England states could provide a unique backdrop for the game's signature brand of mayhem.
Adding to the speculation, industry insider Tom Henderson previously hinted at a potential two-game release for Far Cry 7, both projected for 2026. Until official confirmation from Ubisoft, these details remain unverified, and the final product may differ significantly.
