Ubisoft has delayed Far Cry Instincts until Q1 2005, a move that "will ensure that both the Xbox and PS2 versions have the same impressive graphics and unique immersive gameplay elements as the highly-regarded Far Cry PC version," according to the publisher"s statement this week. It had previously been due out by the end of 2004.
The announcement also marks the first time that Ubisoft has referred to the game specifically in connection with the PlayStation 2. Instincts - a spin-off title in development at Ubisoft Montreal, and "built from the ground up" using Crytek"s original Far Cry tech - had been "consoles including Xbox" or something of the sort up to now.
