Ubisoft Releasing A Live-Action Far Cry 5 Short Film On Amazon Prime
Ubisoft is releasing a live-action short that takes place before the events of Far Cry 5 exclusively on Amazon Prime's streaming service next week.
The short, titled Inside Eden's Gate, tells the story of three vloggers that head to Montana to check out the infamous Eden's Gate cult. Obviously, this doesn't work out quite as well as they would hope, and the result is some sort of mix of the Resident Evil VII prologue and losing all your Youtube advertisers because you pushed the extremes of good sense and morality.
Check out the announce trailer below. The short releases on March 5 to whet your appetite for Far Cry 5, which itself releases on March 27.
Our Take
The short might be interesting, but I am mostly curious if Ubisoft has adjusted or lessened the tone on the game since its initial reveal last year.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
