To me my mind is blown at a futuristic game that can give a template of a world that we have lived in. It’s a future that actors are increasingly diving into (see: Shawn Ashmore in "Quantum Break" and Norman Reedus and many others in "Death Stranding"), and Esposito gets why. And it’s from this vantage point, Esposito says, that he’s come to believe in the unique storytelling future that today’s video games provide. It’s from this perch that he’ll torment gamers, who play as rebel Dani Rojas.
And Esposito, who plays villain Anton Castillo (and is featured on the "Far Cry" 6 box art), has a massive role in the latest game’s political saga.Įsposito plays a dictator ruling the imaginary island of Yara (which is loosely modeled after Cuba) in a narrative that has him pushing his son, Diego, to follow in his footsteps. Ubisoft’s "Far Cry" franchise has spent the last decade establishing itself as an intriguing sandbox that explores slices of political intrigue. Esposito, who’s 63 years old, will play a starring role in one of 2021′s most anticipated video games, "Far Cry 6," and it’s a role unlike anything Esposito has played before. In early October, all of that will change. “And that’s where I left video games long ago.” “I used to play 'Super Mario,'” Esposito says. (The ending was great too.From “Breaking Bad” to “Once Upon a Time” to “The Mandalorian” on Disney Plus, Giancarlo Esposito has played key roles in a host of movies and films in a career that remains on the rise.īut the veteran actor does not play video games, and hasn’t since the early days of everyone’s favorite pipe-jumping plumber.
The mix of heavy weaponry and arcade-style driving in a reactive open world makes for a fantastic first-person sandbox, and I had a lot of fun just bombing around the backroads of Montana in Far Cry 5, assaulting gas stations and feed stores and causing as much random mayhem as possible.
I haven't played all the Far Cry games but I've very much enjoyed the ones I have. You'll drive all over the sunny island of Yara, shoot hundreds (maybe thousands) of people, blow lots of stuff up, make friends with people and dangerous animals, and eventually bring down the top banana, whose obvious wickedness is leavened by surface-level complexity and charisma. "Far Cry 6 is a quintessential Far Cry game," we said in our 75% review: An evolution of the previous games (you can holster your weapons, for instance, so enemies don't immediately go "Hey, that guy with the machine gun looks like trouble") that maintains the same basic gameplay we know and love.
