Ubisoft officially revealed the setting and general time period for Far Cry 5 this week, in a teaser video for 'Hope County' Montana. I love Montana still, though I rarely miss the cold or the snow that never seems to melt. Only Wyoming and Alaska have lower population density than Montana (and both would have served equally well for a game like Far Cry 5, I reckon.) A Far Cry game is nothing without wilderness. These days, Helena is a far cry from the heady days of yore.
