It must be "News on Ubisoft Games" Day (see here for the Assassin's Creed news). The word is that Ubisoft is hard at work on Far Cry 4, that it'll be set in the Himalayas, and that you'll be able to ride elephants.  This is still a rumour at this stage, but Eurogamer seem pretty confident of their facts.  I wonder if we'll be able to hunt elephants, and whether this'll cause some controversy?  Virtual animal rights aside, am very much looking forward to Far Cry 4, after the stellar work on number three .

Oh the days of trying to jump around and knock those guys off... *Stomp Stomp*  

Edit OT: Yay for a potential Far Cry 4 .

Wasn't that a rumour a few months ago? Pretty sure I remember reading it.

Might have been - I'm a bit random in what I pick up on in the gaming news.  Unless it's related to WARRRR THUNDERRRR!

FAR CRY 4 – WELCOME TO KYRAT

November 18, 2014

Announced today, Far Cry 4 will release this year on November 18 in the US and November 20 in EMEA territories. The game will be available on both generations of consoles – PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 – along with Windows PC.
Taking a sharp turn away from the lush island jungles of the top-rated Far Cry 3, Far Cry 4 is set in Kyrat, an untamed region currently ruled by a despotic self-appointed king. But don’t be lulled into a false sense of security by the achingly beautiful views; Kyrat is a wild land full of perils. Once again, players will be able to craft their own stories as they travel through this exotic open world teeming with wildlife – using their wits along with an assortment of powerful weapons and diverse vehicles.
“Following the success of Far Cry 3, we wanted to take the franchise to the next level and create a game that will surprise players and exceed fans’ expectations,” said Dan Hay, Executive Producer. “Given the unique setting, we feel Far Cry 4 will stand out as a top first-person shooter and we’re eager to reveal more about the game in the coming months.”
Development on Far Cry 4 is being led by Ubisoft Montreal in collaboration with Red Storm Entertainment, Ubisoft Toronto, Ubisoft Shanghai and Ubisoft Kiev.
For an exclusive first look at Far Cry 4, be sure to tune in to Ubisoft’s media briefing at E3.

MONKEY AROUND WITH HURK

Seems like you can’t keep a crazy man down. The popular nutjob from Far Cry 3 returns in Far Cry 4 in a series of three single-player missions, available in the game’s Limited Edition. The great news: pre-order Far Cry 4 and you’ll receive a free upgrade to the Limited Edition, which not only includes the Hurk’s Redemption missions but also The Impaler – Hurk’s hefty harpoon gun. Pre-orders are available now through all major retailers.

Far Cry 4 | Keys to Kyrat - Explains about the friend keys you get and how they work.

[Axe99]

Nice one Spec .  It's not a bad deal (anything for free is a win, after all), but 2 hours seems a little on the low side to make the download (which is likely to be sizeable) worth it.
