Far Cry 2, the next-generation first-person shooter, will
take you deep into the most beautiful but also most hostile
environments in the world: Africa! More than just a visual and
technological achievement, Far Cry, the true sequel to the
award-winning PC game, will provide you with an unprecedented
gaming experience. Caught between two rival factions in war-torn
Africa, you are sent to take out "The Jackal," a mysterious
character who has rekindled the conflict between the warlords,
jeopardizing thousands of lives. In order to fulfil your mission
you will have to play the factions against each other, identify
and exploit your their weaknesses, and neutralize their superior
numbers and firepower with surprise, subversion, cunning and, of
course, brute force. OPEN WORLD - The extensive artistic research
combined with the next-gen engine will allow you to explore over
50Km2 of seamlessly rendered African landscape. No game has ever
provided such freedom of movement! DUNIA ENGINE - The Dunia
Engine was built specifically for Far Cry® 2 by the award-winning
Ubisoft Montréal development team. It delivers the most realistic
destructible environments, amazing special effects such as
dynamic fire propagation and storm effects, real-time
night-and-day cycle, dynamic music system, non-scripted enemy
A.I. and much more... REAL-TIME IMMERSION - Real-time story
telling, systemic auto-healing, minimal in-game interface are
just few of the features that will make you feel the tension of
being alone against barbarous warlords that threaten thousands of
innocent lives. WEAPONS OF CHOICE - Choose from a wide range of
weapons to make your way to your primary target. Meet the fight
head-on with your machine-, go berserk with your machete or
make stealth kills as a Sniper. If you feel that the atmosphere
is not warm enough, light up your flamethrower and let your
enemies and everything around them feel the heat.

Far Cry 2 by Ubisoft is the anticipated sequel to the
award-winning original that brings players into the beautiful and
hostile world of Africa. Far Cry 2 for Windows Vista/XP features
open-ended gameplay that allows you to play the game whichever
way you choose, with the choices you make affecting where the
game leads you.
Outstanding Graphics
Ubisoft developed the Dunia Engine specifically for Far Cry 2.
Among other things, the Dunia Engine delivers realistic,
interactive environments, special effects, real-time
night-and-day cycles, and smart enemy AI. Expansive, Realistic
Environment
Far Cry 2 is set in a fictional region of Africa where you are
caught between two rival factions at war. The Ubisoft team spent
a lot of time filming and photographing in Africa to get all the
details of the landscape and native wildlife. The result is a
huge gameplay area that is 50 square kilometers, taking players
into and out of the jungle and savannah. Wild animals such as
zebras, buffalo, gazelle are encountered during the game, with
both players and enemies allowed to interact with them.
Far Cry 2 features an incredible level of detail and realism,
with a minimal in-game interface to detract from immersion. For
example, players will need to navigate the world using an in-game
and navigation system, weapons will disintegrate over time,
and fires will spread and propagate.
Each of the actions a player takes is reflected in the
environment and changes the content of the game. To fulfill your
mission, you need to play the enemies against each other, using
both strategy and skill.
Huge Range of Weapons and Vehicles
Far Cry 2 offers gamers a wide range of weapons, from a machete
for hand-to-hand combat, to a sniper that can stealthily
pluck off enemies from afar. As weapons disintegrate over time,
they might jam or even explode in your hand.
There are also a large range of vehicles such as gliders,
trucks, cars, and boats that will let you fly, drive, slide, and
hover over the open landscapes.
Multiplayer Options for up to 16 Players
Far Cry 2 supports up to 16 players and has four gameplay modes:
Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Diamond, and Uprising.
Players can choose from six different classes in multiplayer,
each with its own set of pros and cons. Just as in the
single-player mode, multiplayer games will feature dynamic
elements, making each session unique.
