While we all know it's coming, Ubisoft is yet to make any official announcement concerning a sequel to the wonderfully received Far Cry 3. Until then, we've been relying on speculation and hearsay from people working on the project, and today's news is no exception.

Xavier Plagnal, a long time Ubisoft employee (most recently with Ubisoft Shanghi), had let slip on his LinkedIn page that he's been working as a Content Director on "the next Far Cry" since September 2013. The acknowledgement has since been removed - probably in an attempt by Ubisoft to cover it up after it was discovered - but it looks more and more likely that we'll be hearing something official about Far Cry 4 sometime this year.
