Hong Kong — March 27, 2018 — Today, Ubisoft® announced that Far Cry® 5, the latest installment of the critically acclaimed Far Cry franchise, is now available for a suggested retail price of 59.99€ on the PlayStation®4 Pro computer entertainment system, PlayStation®4, the Xbox One family of devices and Windows PC.

Set in America, a first for the franchise, Far Cry 5 offers players total freedom to navigate a serene-looking yet deeply twisted world as the new junior deputy of fictional Hope County, Montana.

Far Cry 5, developed by Ubisoft Montreal in collaboration with other studios*, is a first person shooter set in a completely open world.
