Far Cry 3, despite receiving the dubious moniker of "Skyrim with guns," was quite well received upon its release by critics and audiences alike. Naturally, another installment in the franchise was inevitable.
Well, here we are.
EurogamerFar Cry 4 will be released in the first half of 2015 and be set around the snowy mountain ranges of the Himalayas, Eurogamer can confirm.
There's more to the region than just snow - it's expected that the game will feature a number of environments.
The switch in location marks a drastic change for the adventure series, which is usually more associated with sandy, tropical locales. But it will also pave the way for some new features - such as the ability to saddle up and ride elephants, people familiar with the project told Eurogamer.
Far Cry 4 is still some way away, but we understand that Ubisoft is currently aiming to release it during the next financial year (before the end of March 2015).

The game will be released for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
No word yet if there's any plans for a followup to the Blood Dragon DLC/expansion, but one can only hope. Hold on to the vision, my friends.
