Amazon Reveals More Far Cry New Dawn Details

The box art for Far Cry: New Dawn appeared earlier today, but a listing on Amazon has revealed more nuggets of info about the game. Most importantly, those characters on the cover? They’re New Dawn‘s villains.

We already knew that New Dawn would take place in a post-apocalyptic world, but a store listing on Amazon US has confirmed that the game is set in Hope County, where Far Cry 5 took place.

It also notes that the “Twins”, featured on the box cover, are the antagonists for the game:

Lead the fight against the highwaymen and their ruthless leaders, the Twins.
Build up your home base and recruit specialists to upgrade it as you unlock all-new features.
Battle your enemies for resources in Hope County and around the country as you venture to new locations.

The game is supposedly set 17 years after Far Cry 5 ends, with the player battling the Highwaymen for the last remaining resources in the area. The Amazon listing also had four shots showing off some of the enemies, locations and enemies:

Ubisoft is due to premiere footage of Far Cry New Dawn later today, as part of The Game Awards. You can tune into that below.
