The immersive world of Far Cry has gotten a whole lot better with this new announcement. During the Ubisoft Forward livestream pre-show, Ubisoft announced a new installment they’re naming Far Cry VR: Dive Into Insanity.
For this project, they’re working alongside Zero Latency VR, a company that allows you to experience on-site, free-roaming virtual reality. There are so many great VR games these days, so what makes this one stand out?
Unlike other VR games that restrict you within a certain area, Dive Into Insanity allows you to roam around the game space freely. The exotic yet chaotic world of Far Cry will be all yours to explore.
Multiplayer gameplay is also a huge part of this upcoming title, as it will allow you and seven other players to play together at the same time. Unfortunately, those who want to try the game out would have to go to one of Zero Latency VR’s locations.
On the plus side, though, the company has venues in 22 countries, as well as 13 locations in North America alone. Although, Ubisoft didn’t specify which areas will have the game. Based on the trailer, Far Cry VR: Dive Into Insanity replicates the laser tag experience, wherein the players go into a large room with headsets and backpacks on.
They then pick up an assault rifle and shuffle through the room freely while virtually and mentally, they’re right in the world of Far Cry.
Dive Into Insanity will take players back to the island of Far Cry 3, with Vaas Montenegro as the main villain. It’s said that each game will take about 30 minutes.
Ubisoft has so many Far Cry games planned, and with Far Cry 6 releasing in February and Dive Into Insanity coming sometime in 2021, it’s safe to say that it’s a wonderful time to be a Far Cry fan.
