Far Cry 5 Officially Announced by Ubisoft
Far Cry 5 has officially been announced by Ubisoft.
It's a pretty underwhelming announcement, though: the game has been sent out into the wider world with an empty forum and a logo, but that's about it.
You can find the forum here, and it's just starting to be populated by people eager to find out more about the upcoming adventure game.
The logo looks nice and clean, but we literally know nothing about the game yet. Nice to know it exists, and we're likely to see something more interesting about the title at this year's E3.

re: Far Cry 5 - 3/27/18
I love the language used by the Ubisoft employee 
"We believe Alpha for these games needs to be one year before release," explained editorial VP Tommy Francois from Ubisoft. "We're trying to achieve that. That's super fucking blunt, I don't even know if I'm allowed to say this. This is the goal we're going for: Alpha one year before, more quality, more polish. So if this means biting the [bullet] and not having an Assassin's game or a Far Cry [in 2017], fuck it."

Guess I was wrong about the setting but it's gonna have to get near perfect reviews for me to bite if it's in competition with RDR 2

So an escaped "sinner" versus some radical zealot and a bunch of hillbillies? I'm IN!
Edit: weapons are modern too... now I'm double IN!

Yeah, even if it's the same FC formula as usual, the setting/theme that they're teasing is definitely gonna make me buy this right away.

I skipped Primal, but just that key art will bring me back. I'm curious how the story will explain this group taking over such a large area of US soil unchecked, but even if it's ridiculous I don't care as long as it's fun.

Looks like an adaptation of Kevin Smith's Red State.
