The worldwide reveal of Ubisoft Montreal’s Far Cry 5 has gone live and new information about the game’s story and gameplay features were shared. The reveal featured multiple trailers that included the official announce trailer and character profiles for some of the NPC’s that players will be interacting within the game. These profiles feature three different characters from Hope County, Montana and short monologues about their relationship with the religious cult there. According to Ubisoft’s website, the cult call themselves “Eden’s Gate” and they are led by a man named Joseph who calls himself “The Father.”
Jerome Jeffries, Nick Rye and Mary May are the three characters shown in these short videos and they all give speeches about their history with the cult and how they’ve affected their lives. The game’s official announce trailer was also shown and it featured the game’s various characters and the cult militia that will serve as the main antagonist to the story. In the footage, the militia is terrorizing the county and its people while John speaks.
The game also shows some wildlife and environments that players have become accustomed to in the Far Cry universe. Although the setting is still different from others because it is the only game to take place in a North American environment. Details about gameplay and the story were revealed by the game’s producer Dan Hay in a separate video released by Ubisoft. Hay speaks about the process of developing the game and talks about interactions with characters and forming alliances with them.
In Far Cry 5, the protagonist is a character that is a junior sheriff coming into Hope County. According to Ubisoft, the players can choose the visual features of their character such as skin tone and gender. The characters that players will meet can be recruited into a resistance to fight the Eden’s Gate militia. Players will be able to have up to three characters with them at a time and they have different skills that will help aid players in battle.
Ubisoft has also revealed that the game’s campaign will be played in co-op but didn’t go into many specifics about it. Vehicles are still a large part to this game like past titles, according to the press release, players can expect to drive ATV’s, trucks and boats. There will also be planes in the game that players can fly and engage in dogfights with, which is a first for the Far Cry franchise. Players can also have animal companions to aid them in the open world and in combat.
Far Cry 5 will release on Febuary 27, 2018 and will be available on the Xbox one, PS4 and PC platforms.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games
Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.
In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.
According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.
In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!
Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

Shift Up unveils the intriguing details behind the physical packaging of Stellar Blade for the PS5
It appears that many
are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.
We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.
