Far Cry 4 Shows Off its Main Villain

Ubisoft's Monday afternoon press conference was a roller coaster of emotions, but it started off in a fantastic way.

The opening segment of Far Cry 4 was shown in which you arrive in the Himalayas on a bus that is immediately destroyed by soldiers. You also meet the main villain of Far Cry 4, who has an unknown reason for wanting to meet you. He mentioned that he recognized your eyes, whatever that means.

This villain seems to have the same lovable craziness that made Vaas such a great character. He begins the game properly by stabbing one of his soldiers multiple times before complaining about getting blood on his shoes. He also takes a selfie with your character and explains that you will have a wonderful adventure together.

What in the hell is going on?

Far Cry 4 is one of my most anticipated games of E3, and I can't wait to spend time in the Himalayas. I have no idea what is going on with the main character and the villain, but finding out will be fantastic.

Far Cry 4 Arriving in November 2014

The UbiBlog announced on May 15 that Far Cry 4 is real, and it is set in the Himalayas. 

According to the post, Far Cry 4 leaves the tropical setting of Far Cry 3 and heads to a wild region known as Kyrat, where a self-appointed king rules. Not much is known about this king, but Ubisoft promises more information at a later date. 

Executive Producer Dan Hay provided information about Ubisoft's hope for Far Cry 4. "Following the success of Far Cry 3, we wanted to take the franchise to the next level and create a game that will surprise players and exceed fans’ expectations." 

Ubisoft Montreal is developing Far Cry 4 with the assistance of Red Storm Entertainment, Ubisoft Toronto, Ubisoft Shanghai, and Ubisoft Kiev. 

Far Cry 4 will be shown during Ubisoft's annual E3 press conference on June 9. 

If the cover art is any indication, this new villain looks to share the psychotic charm that Vaas had in Far Cry 3, which would be downright wonderful. We don't know anything about the "varied vehicles and wildlife" that Ubisoft mentions in the blog post, but we are hoping that Far Cry 4 will bring back the wing suit and include rideable animals…like an elephant.
