The leaked character list includes intriguing names like Layla, Dax, Bry, Christian, Henry, and Christa Bennett. As for the villains, one name stands out—Ian Duncan, a conspiracy theorist with a devoted following, whose hatred for the elite fuels his ambitions. Other key characters include John McKay and Dr. Safna Kazan, who may play crucial supporting roles.

Perhaps the most significant revelation from the leaks is the rumored setting: New England. If confirmed, this would mark the first time the Far Cry series explores this region. Ubisoft has not yet verified these details, and as with all game development, changes could occur before the final release.

Insiders claim that New England was specifically mentioned in casting calls, adding credence to the speculation about the location. This historic region of the U.S., encompassing states like Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts, could provide a fresh and dynamic backdrop for the franchise's signature chaos.

Adding to the excitement, industry insider Tom Henderson has suggested that Far Cry 7 might be released as two separate games, both expected to launch in 2026.
