Ubisoft remains silent on Far Cry 7, but whispers of a casting call leak offer intriguing glimpses into the potential storyline. Reddit users claim the game will center on a fierce power struggle within the affluent Bennett family, mirroring the dramatic tensions of HBO's "Succession."

Leaked character names include Layla, Dax, Bry, Christian, Henry, and Christa Bennett. The antagonist appears to be Ian Duncan, a conspiracy theorist with a dedicated following whose animosity towards the elite fuels his ambitions. Supporting roles may be filled by John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan.
The most surprising detail is the rumored setting: New England. This would mark a significant departure for the Far Cry franchise. While Ubisoft hasn't confirmed this, casting calls reportedly mentioned New England specifically, lending credence to the speculation. The diverse landscapes of Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and other New England states could provide a unique and compelling environment.
Adding to the speculation, industry insider Tom Henderson previously hinted at a potential split release for Far Cry 7, with two separate games possibly launching in 2026. Until official confirmation from Ubisoft, however, all details remain unconfirmed and subject to change during development.
