Ubisoft remains silent on Far Cry 7, but a recent casting call leak offers intriguing hints about the next chapter. Reddit users report a plot centered on a fierce power struggle within the affluent Bennett family, mirroring the dynamics of HBO's "Succession."

The leaked cast includes family members Layla, Dax, Bry, Christian, Henry, and Christa Bennett. A prominent antagonist emerges: Ian Duncan, a conspiracy theorist with a dedicated following, whose disdain for the elite fuels his ambitions. Supporting roles may be filled by John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan.
The most surprising revelation? A rumored New England setting. This would mark a first for the Far Cry franchise, venturing into a historically rich region encompassing six states, including Maine, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire. While unconfirmed by Ubisoft, casting calls reportedly mentioned New England explicitly, bolstering the speculation.
Adding another layer of mystery, industry insider Tom Henderson previously hinted at a potential split release for Far Cry 7, with two separate games possibly launching in 2026. Naturally, Ubisoft hasn't verified any of this information, and development changes could significantly alter the final product.
