Unannounced Multiplayer Far Cry Spinoff Captain Laserhawk Niji Warrior Rated by PEGI

It looks like Ubisoft is making a Far Cry spinoff based on an animated show based on a Far Cry spinoff.

As spotted by Game Rant, PEGI has rated an unannounced Ubisoft title in the form of Captain Laserhawk Niji Warrior. If the name is anything to go by, the game will be based on Netflix’s animated series Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, which itself is inspired by Far Cry 3’s 2013 offshoot, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon.

As per the PEGI rating, Captain Laserhawk Niji Warrior is going to be a multiplayer game where players will take part in “laser deathmatches” and “compete to eliminate the most opponents”. Seemingly, it will also adopt the stylized look of the animated series, with the rating describing characters’ reactions to being shot as “unrealistic, with characters breaking into parts when hit”.

The rating also mentions that the game will make use of microtransactions and allow players to purchase in-game items, such as cosmetics.

Leaks have claimed that Ubisoft has two Far Cry titles in the works – Far Cry 7 and a multiplayer extraction shooter – both of which are allegedly targeting 2025 releases.

In August last year, Ubisoft announced that it had appointed Far Cry Primal and Far Cry 5 narrative lead as the series’ new IP director.
