Far Cry®, a cunning and detailed action shooter, takes us to a tropical paradise teeming with hidden evil and pushes the boundaries of combat to shockingly new levels. Jack Carver, a free sailor, regrets the day he ended up on this island. A week ago, a cheeky reporter named Valerie promised him an unbelievable sum of money for transportation to this pristine paradise. However, shortly after docking, Jack's boat was fired upon by a mysterious group of militiamen prowling the island. With a wrecked boat, lost money, and the suddenly missing beautiful Valerie, Jack now faces an army of mercenaries in the middle of a wild island, with only weapons and wits at his disposal to survive. The deeper he goes into the dense foliage of the jungle, the stranger things happen. Jack meets an informant in a militia group who reveals horrific details of the mercenaries' true intentions. He confronts Jack with a disturbing choice: fight the most dangerous mercenaries or condemn humanity to the satanic plan of a madman.
