Far Cry New Dawn, a standalone sequel to Far Cry 5, kicks off with a bang, literally. Learn what happens to humanity after a devastating nuclear apocalypse, and then see firsthand how visitors to Hope County are greeted by the merciless Highwaymen 17 years later in the opening moments of the game.
Seventeen years after a global nuclear catastrophe, civilization re-emerges from the chaos to find a world dramatically changed. In a post-apocalyptic Hope County, Montana, the remaining populace has gathered into different groups, each with their own rules for survival.

In this new world order, the vicious Highwaymen, led by twin sisters Mickey and Lou, travel from place to place bleeding people dry of all available resources. As the Survivors try to defend their lands against the Highwaymen’s relentless onslaught, it’s up to you to come to their aid and lead the fight.
In the latest installment of the award-winning Far Cry franchise, you are the last line of defense in a transformed, post-apocalyptic Hope County. Help the community of Survivors grow stronger, craft a makeshift arsenal through Turf Wars and cross-country Expeditions, and form unexpected alliances to fight for survival in a dangerous new frontier.
Far Cry New Dawn will release this Friday on February 15, 2019, on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
