<p>Alex Hutchinson, the director of Far Cry 4 has confirmed that his next game won&#8217;t be Far Cry 5. Instead, it will be a small passion project. In an interview with CVG, Hutchinson said:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve got clearance along with a bunch of people from Assassin&#8217;s Creed III and Assassin&#8217;s Creed IV to go off and do something new. The challenge then is to keep costs down and make something that competes at a high level, without saying &#8216;we need a thousand people for a new IP!'&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time that a Far Cry director has made a new IP. Patrick Plourde, the director of Far Cry 3 followed up that game with Child of Light, a small but profitable digital title.</p>
<p>Hutchinson isn&#8217;t ready to reveal his next project just yet but he hopes he can announce it next year.</p>
