Ubisoft’s next title in the series, Far Cry 6 is set to feature Breaking Bad’s notorious villain Gustavo Fring actor Giancarlo Esposito. According to a report by GameReactor, the actor’s recent comments mentioned his role in a “huge” video game title.
Far Cry 6 is far from having any details right now, as Ubisoft has not given any additional information about the game. This won’t be the first time an actor from the Breaking Bad series is being featured in the game. Michael Mando, who played as the iconic villain Vaas in Far Cry 3, is also another character from the series. Mando is also the current actor in the Breaking Bad prequel spinoff, Better Call Saul.
Giancarlo Esposito is one of the most important people in the Breaking Bad series, where he is one of the main villains in the TV show. His acting has won many awards and accolades and we can’t think of a better villainous character to be featured in a Far Cry game.
Esposito is also no stranger to the world of gamine, having previously being featured in Payday 2, and The Dentist as a voice actor.
We do know what Ubisoft plans to bring to feature the next Far Cry title somewhere in the tropical lands. A rumor last month suggested that the game would be revealed on July 12 and that it will be releasing in April of next year. If true, we are just days away from the rumored date, and with the Breaking Bad actor information, we might just be getting some signs of an announcement coming very soon.
Either way, we will have to sit and wait for Ubisoft to confirm anything. Having said that, we highly advise to not have your hopes up too high before any confirmation.
