Today we got our first look at Far Cry 6 and all the leaked details. Yes, the release date that was published online was correct, and there is no doubt that the game will be compatible with next-generation consoles.

And if that wasn't enough, we also got some promising information about when we will receive further news about Far Cry 6 and when we will actually be able to see the game. Here is what we know so far about "Far Cry 6," one of the most anticipated games of next year.

Far Cry 6 will be released on February 18, 2021. This release date was first known from the English translation of the PS Store listing, which is discussed below - and was also confirmed in the trailer that officially released the game.

Far Cry 6 made headlines when the Hong Kong Playstation Store leaked the game on July 10. The leak revealed several important details about the game.

News also broke of an upgrade pass for next-gen consoles: according to Gamespot, those who purchased the digital PS4 version of the game can upgrade to the PS5 version for free. This is similar to Microsoft's Xbox Series X Smart Delivery, so expect Ubisoft to consider upgrading from Xbox One to Xbox Series X. Prestige fills the opening credits like a TV movie, introducing Anton Castillo, his son Diego, and the revolution that is about to topple his statue.

With no gameplay footage and completely built around cinematics, this "Far Cry 6" trailer focuses on emphasizing how much Esposito helps make the game a cinematic experience.

Perhaps the biggest news on the leaked "Far Cry 6" list is that its box art confirms the big rumors from last week. Esposito not only appears in Far Cry 6, he is also a major villain.

Esposito is depicted in the box art as Anton Castillo, and a copy of the game states that Castillo is a dictator who "seeks to restore the country to its former glory by any means necessary, with his son Diego following in his bloody footsteps."

Far Cry 6 takes place in Yala, a nation ruled by Anton Castillo. Far Cry 6 product copy describes Yala as "a tropical paradise where time has stood still."

However, Castillo is in trouble and the local Yarans are leading a revolution against him. You play as Yaran Dani Rojas, a "guerrilla fighter for the liberation of his country."

Yala is "the biggest Far Cry setting ever" (according to the product description), and you will fight Anton's army in its "jungles, beaches and Yala's capital, Esperanza."
