Ubisoft making Far Cry TV show with Mythic Quest creator

Ubisoft and Netflix recently confirmed that an Assassin's Creed TV series would soon be going into production. Now, it appears that one of Ubisoft's other major franchises, Far Cry, is due to get the same treatment. 

According to a now deleted post on Ubisoft's website, which was later preserved on Reddit, Ubisoft's Far Cry series is in development at FX, with Rob McElhenney of ‘It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' set to co-create it. McElhenney has worked with Ubisoft previously on the Apple TV+ series ‘Mythic Quest'.

Aside from co-creating, McElhenney is also expected to have an acting role in the show, but no specific roles have been confirmed so far. The Far Cry series is expected to be an anthology series, with each season having its own self-contained story, with fresh characters each time. This is also how the Far Cry games work, with each game taking place in a new setting, with new heroes, villains and side characters.

It is unclear when the series will be officially announced, Ubisoft leaked the announcement early via its website, so we would expect a proper announcement before the end of the month.
