It has been a long time since we got any updates on Far Cry 6. Luckily, we just got the first gameplay trailer for the highly anticipated Ubisoft title. Amazingly, the trailer also revealed the game's release date this year.

The trailer was dropped by Ubisoft and it finally introduced Dani Rojas, the protagonist that players will get to control. Although Dani is presented as a female, players also have the option to make the character male.

We're loving the Far Cry 6 gameplay trailer and it's awesome to see more of Giancarlo Esposito's Anton Castillo. We also got a glimpse of a crocodile named Guapo who you can actually recruit to be your companion in the game. Now that's just an option that's too amazing to pass up on.

The official description for Far Cry 6 reads as follows:

"Welcome to Yara, a tropical paradise frozen in time. As dictator of Yara, Anton Castillo is intent on restoring his nation back to its former glory by any means, with his son, Diego, following in his bloody footsteps. Become a guerrilla fighter and burn their regime to the ground.
"As Dani Rojas (playable as a female or male character), you will help stoke the fires of revolution through guerrilla warfare across the island of Yara, from verdant jungles to the urban streets of the capital city, Esperanza. You'll use a powerful array of weapons and vehicles, and build a network of allies to fight alongside you, including Fangs for Hire like Chorizo, the dangerously distracting wiener dog.
"As President Castillo prepares his son Diego, played by Anthony Gonzalez (Coco), to succeed him, you will do all you can to ensure his plans don't come to fruition."

Far Cry 6 will be released on PC, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Stadia, and Amazon Luna on October 7, 2021.
