The Far Cry series has taken players through a number of exciting locales throughout the history of the series, but now Ubisoft is preparing a journey to perhaps the most exotic location yet, pre-history.

My guess is that the inevitable Far Cry Primal strategy guide will mention something about avoiding these guys..

Far Cry Primal, announced Tuesday by Ubisoft for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, will transport players back to 10,000 b.c. and into the role of TAKKAR, the sole survivor of a group of hunters. Far Cry Primal’s setting is a time long before guns and explosives, a time when humans had to band together into tribal units in order to survive the harsh surroundings and ferocious beasts looking for their next snack.

Ubisoft Creative Director Jean-Christophe Guyot noted that the Stone Age was “the perfect setting for a Far Cry game” in a press release accompanying the revelation of the game. “It’s the time when humans put a stick in the ground and claimed land for their own, the time when we started climbing the food chain.  That came with conflict against other humans, of course, but also against nature itself.”

Ubisoft’s Montreal office is handling the development of Far Cry Primal, which is due out on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on February 23rd, 2016 and March 2016 for the PC.
