About Far Cry 2 Developed by Ubisoft
Montreal, Far Cry 2 will be the newest innovation from Ubisoft in the world of
next-gen first-person shooters. More than just a visual and technological
achievement, Far Cry 2 immerses players in an entirely new kind of gaming
experience. Running on a tailor-made new gaming engine, Far Cry 2 features
non-scripted enemy Artificial Intelligence, entirely destructible environments,
dynamic fire and storm effects, and multiplayer gameplay, all in a completely
open world 50km2 environment. Players will find themselves immersed in a
war-torn, African state, where they will be forced to make deals with corrupt
warlords on both sides of the conflict in order to survive and move ever-closer
to their primary objective – the Jackal. Players must identify and exploit their
enemies’ weaknesses, neutralizing their superior numbers and firepower with
surprise, subversion, cunning, and of course brute force.
Far Cry 2 will be available at the
manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $59.99 for the Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION
3 system and at $49.99 for the PC.
