Rumours originating from GameStop are always a little shady so take this one with a grain of salt, but a listing for a Far Cry 5 has appeared on the retailer's website. The post comes with a release date of 26th November, which puts the title's launch on a Sunday, another nail in the coffin of this rumour.
Despite the lack of plausibility, it's still probably safe to assume that a new Far Cry game is in the works. A numbered sequel in the franchise hasn't been seen since late 2014, and last year's Far Cry Primal felt like a re-skin of the tried and tested Ubisoft formula.

I'll only buy it if there's towers to unlock
There will be a Far Cry 5 but personally, I think I am burned out on it. I think, if it sticks to the same formula, it will suffer from the same issues as Watch Dogs 2 regarding sales.
Sorry its out of stock. Wanna buy a copy of 2nd hand Knack 2?
I'm definitely interested in a Far Cry 5, but if it follows the same template from FC3 & 4, I'll be less inclined to play. Similar to Assassin's Creed, Far Cry could do with a shake up.
Im playing 4 right now and its so damn dull.
I really enjoyed Primal more than 4 tbh and I think if there is a FC 5 it should be released next year.
I'd love a Far Cry Primal 2 but I doubt it will happen.The original was a lot of fun and was far better than Far Cry 4.
I don't think it's coming this year. Ubisoft's lineup for 2017 is kinda packed? And there was a Far Cry game last year. So ya, FC5 in early 2018 I think.
Three was great, 4 was kind more of the same and Primal was unnecessary. I want a new Farcry but they have to do better.
After that survey they put out in 2015, this one better have dinosaurs.
I enjoyed both 3 and 4 and would buy 5. That said I hope the main character is better in 5. I felt the protagonist was the weakest part in both 3 and 4.
Are they new copies or used ones?
@BLP_Software right? I enjoyed 3 but never got to finish it. Was excited when I got 4 in a sale but something about it was just extremely off-putting and unenjoyable
I'm happy enough with the ubisoft way at the moment. I enjoy structured games that you have to scout an area ie. unlock a tower, take out all the bases and visit all the locations before moving onto the next. Yes I admit it can be samey but Ubisoft are great at varying the surroundings of each tower providing variety at every location which is impressive. They put an impressive amount of detail into each area/game and I enjoy exploring each and everyone. I am a big fan of the assassins creed and far cry series and I'm hyped for the upcoming Ghost recon wildlands.....which will also be unlocking a area, taking out the bases and I can't wait!!!!
I agree the series definitely needs a shake up in the design department.
Loved FC3 but 4 and Primal just felt like the same game again.
Also preferred the setting and story in FC3...
FC3 definitely the high point of the series. FC2 (if you've ever played it) is way worse than FC4 (which was just a duller version of FC3) or FCP. I really hope FC5 does an Assassin's Creed 4, but I won't be pre-ordering that's for sure.
Also interesting that there is a bit of love for FC Primal in the comments - I've been tempted to get this when it's on sale.
How about Far Cry: Medeival?
