Does that elephant have hand grenade eyes?

With a frighteningly large North American readership, Game Informer magazine gets some of the best cover reveals each and every month. Heading into E3 last year, it unveiled Titanfall, the next first-person shooter from Call of Duty creators Respawn Entertainment. This time around, it’s not breaking news of an unannounced title, but it has got an exclusive first look at hotly anticipated sequel Far Cry 4.

As part of its extensive 12-page story, the publication promises information on “weapons, vehicles, modes of traversal, loads of diabolical new combat manoeuvres – and some big surprises, too”. Interestingly, though, the issue will not be available to download until after the conclusion of Sony’s big press conference next week, suggesting that you should probably expect some kind of cameo from Ubisoft Montreal during the show.

In the meantime, you can check out the issue’s awesome artwork embedded above. Are you ready to embark on your tour of the Himalayas? Paraglide into the comments section below.
