Ubisoft has released a new trailer that unravels the deep mythological past of Kyrat, the fictional Himalayan kingdom which features in the upcoming FPS title Far Cry 4.
The serene Himalayan kingdom, which has various wild animals like rhinos, tigers, snow leopards, yaks, elephants and more, has been transformed into a land of bloodshed by its tyrant lord Pagan Min, who has left the people divided as the civil war rages. The game will give you bows and arrows, guns and explosive devices in order to fight the enemies.
The Himalayas are dangerous and hold numerous secrets. Players will have to face avalanches, and so the wingsuit will come in very handy. Players must also be careful not to be mauled by a snow leopards, rhinos or other wild animals.

Players can also taunt the yaks to attack and then run towards enemy gates.
