E3 2021 – Ubisoft Forward Highlights

Ubisoft Forward ended just moments ago, and we can’t wait to share with you our experiences and highlights of the event. We got several games lined up and even a movie to look forward to within the year and the next. So if you’ve been looking for the best highlights that Ubisoft Forward had to offer, here’s your list!


Far Cry 6

A bigger and more massive open world is in the horizon for us to explore! Get ready to dive into the country of Yara as you play as a rebel fighter, Dani Rojas, on his/her way to topple a cruel dictator controlling the country with an iron fist. You can choose your character’s gender, customize their weapons, and pick who you want to go with you.

In Ubisoft Forward, they released a new trailer that puts us face-to-face with the game’s primary villain, Anton Castillo, who is played by non other than Giancarlo Esposito. You may have seen him play his role on Breaking Bad as Gustavo Fring. And much like the list of charming villains in the previous Far Cry games, Esposito plays his role well wonderfully.

As a developer of the game notes, Far Cry’s trend of charismatic villains comes from the desire of encapsulating the unknown. Having someone charming sit across the table from you when you have no idea of just how cruel a man he really is. And it seems that Anton Castillo, will be the latest of the lovable Far Cry villains to join the family.

Even more, there’s an expansion coming up which will allow you to play your favorite villain from the previous three installments! Not much was revealed on this. But it seems that will be able to put our boots on the bad guys with all the charm they hold.

Coming out this October 7th!
