Far Cry Extraction Shooter is One of the Games Reportedly Under Development at Ubisoft
Of the two Far Cry titles that were rumoured to be in development from a report all the way back in January, a new report indicates that one of the titles, dubbed Project Maverick, will be a Far Cry-themed multiplayer extraction shooter.
According to Insider Gaming, the multiplayer title has changed its scope quite a few times over its development period, with its latest iteration being an under-development extraction shooter set in a fictionalized version of Alaska, named Alashnica.
The game is set to take its cues from its Far Cry predecessors, with players setting out to look for resources. These resources can then be used to craft new equipment. For example, leather from a killed animal can be used to make new gear, while chemicals found in the world will allow players to make gadgets.
In extraction shooter fashion, players will also have a hideout where they can store the things they find and craft. The game will also have permadeath, which means that players will lose all of their character’s progress on death.
The other Far Cry title in development, dubbed Project Blackbird, will be a new mainline entry in the series, and will probably end up titled Far Cry 7.
While the extraction shooter doesn’t yet have a release date, according to Insider Gaming, the game is slated for release before Far Cry 7. The current internal release window for the title is set for April 2025, with an alpha release in early 2024.
