Ubisoft gave us a more in-depth look at Far Cry 5 at its E3 2017 press event. Most importantly, we met Boomer, a dog partner ("Fangs for Hire") who helps you tag enemies.

A new story trailer for Far Cry 5 gives us a clear look at Father Joseph, and a new gameplay trailer demonstrates one of many ways you can riddle his followers' bodies with bullets.

Far Cry 5 is coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC on February 27, 2018.
