A post on Ubisoft's news page reportedly announced that FX is working on a TV
show adaptation of the Far Cry franchise. The page has since been taken down
and entering the website redirects to Ubisoft's landing page for company
news. However, several Redditors have been circulating what they saw in the
press release.

According to the alleged Ubisoft post, the Far Cry franchise adaptation will
be an "anthology drama" where "each season will be set in a new world with a
different cast of characters following the video game franchise's signature
standalone storytelling format." The series is reportedly being co-created by
Rob Mac, known for creating and starring in It's Always Sunny in
Philadelphia, and Noah Hawley, who created Fargo and Legion for FX. The
leaked release supposedly detailed that Hawley will serve as the showrunner
for the series, while also filling the role of executive producer along with
Mac. Several production studios have reportedly joined the project, including
Ubisoft Film & Television, which is working on other video game adaptations
for the Assassin's Creed and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell franchises.

While FX hasn't confirmed anything officially, the leaked cast and crew could
be a sign of the next big hit in the world of video games adapted into TV.
The recent success of Fallout and The Last of Us indicates a healthy appetite
from viewers and Hawley's previous experience could be an appropriate fit for
the Far Cry franchise's raw, but darkly comedic style.
