The game, which has yet to be officially announcd by Ubisoft, will likely be based on Netflix’s Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix.
It looks like Ubisoft is making a Far Cry spinoff based on an animated show based on a Far Cry spinoff.
As spotted by Game Rant, PEGI has rated an unannounced Ubisoft title in the form of Captain Laserhawk Niji Warrior. If the name is anything to go by, the game will be based on Netflixâs animated series Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, which itself is inspired by Far Cry 3âs 2013 offshoot, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon.
As per the PEGI rating, Captain Laserhawk Niji Warrior is going to be a multiplayer game where players will take part in âlaser deathmatchesâ and âcompete to eliminate the most opponentsâ. Seemingly, it will also adopt the stylized look of the animated series, with the rating describing charactersâ reactions to being shot as âunrealistic, with characters breaking into parts when hitâ.
The rating also mentions that the game will make use of microtransactions and allow players to purchase in-game items, such as cosmetics.
Leaks have claimed that Ubisoft has two Far Cry titles in the works â Far Cry 7 and a multiplayer extraction shooter â both of which are allegedly targeting 2025 releases.
In August last year, Ubisoft announced that it had appointed Far Cry Primal and Far Cry 5 narrative lead as the seriesâ new IP director.
