Not much: what Ubi is showing us for now
While news of Far Cry 2 first broke due to an asset leak last year, Ubisoft has officially announced the development of a sequel to Crytek's award-winning 2004 shooter, Far Cry.

At this stage not much is known about Far Cry 2 - with the official press release being conspicuously light on information - but lucky PC PowerPlay readers will only have to wait until July 25, as issue #142 will contain a preview to welcome you to Ubisoft's new jungle.

Although not much is known about the title, the Ubi marketing machine is out in full swing with vice president of marketing Tony Key stating:

Far Cry marked the beginning of a new era for shooters. An era of gorgeous graphics and of advanced artificial intelligence. We are confident that Far Cry 2 will have the same impact again on the FPS genre landscape.

- Official Press Release

Far Cry 2 will be hitting retailers in Q2 of 2008.
