Last update: 11 May 2016
The Far Cry series, yet again, brings you to the most exotic places of our planet. In Far Cry 4, in contrast to the third installment of the series, you will have to bid farewell to the golden beaches, dense tropical jungle and the turquoise sea, as you will be dropped in the heart of mountainous Asia. The action of the title takes place in a small, fictional, Himalayan country named Kyrat, whose culture and architecture is based on the Bhutan, Nepal and Tibet. The country inhabitants are attached to centuries-old traditions and a simple model of life. Unfortunately, their peace is suddenly interrupted by a violent civil war, being the work of Pagan Min, an eccentric military warlord, and the self-proclaimed king of Kyrat. Together with his fanatic followers, he induces terror and strong-arm governments, bringing together a large number of civilian victims. The rebels are trying to resist the sick ambitions of Min, trying their best to remove him from power.
The main character of Far Cry 4 is Ajay Ghale. He's an ambitious, yet inexperienced man, born in the United States of America, although his family originated from the Kyrat. To fulfill the last will of his deceased mother, to scatter her ashes on home soil, Ajay, despite the dangers, goes on a journey to Asia. After arrival, he meets Min and gets caught up against his will in the struggle between the supporters of the dictator and the guerrillas.
