The Far Cry series will feature an original story. Like the games that inspired the show, each season will be set in a different location and follow a new cast of characters. When it launches, FX’s Far Cry will be available on FX, Hulu, and Disney+ internationally.

The Far Cry series is executive produced by Noah Hawley (Fargo, Alien: Earth) through his 26 Keys production company, and Mac through More Better Productions. Additionally, the series is executive produced by Simon Emanuel and Emilia Serrano for 26 Keys, Nick Frenkel for 3 Arts, Monica Macer, Peter Calloway, and John Campisi, as well as Gerard Guillemot, Margaret Boykin, and Austin Dill for Ubisoft Film & Television. The series will be produced by FX productions.
