Africa-set follow-up coming to consoles, Ubisoft confirms

Jan 3, 2008

In one of its traditional ten-minutes-'til-home-time press releases, Ubisoft has revealed that the sequel to Far Cry will be coming to Xbox 360 and PS3 as well as PC.

The Africa-set follow-up recently saw a month delay, putting its release back to March - though from what little we've seen of it so far we'll be impressed if it even makes it out that early.

It's nice to see that home consoles at least aren't getting a watered-down port this time around (not that Instincts was at all bad), though hopefully there'll be some tailoring for the 360 and PS3's various traits (and mouse and keyboard support on the latter).

You can read the latest preview on the follow-up here.
