Watch the first Far Cry 5 trailer and see 29 details you missed

GR+'s Senior Producer James Jarvis and I have broken down the trailer to pick out some of the finer details and there's plenty of info hiding in there: 

There's plenty to think about in all that and if you see anything else then drop a comment below. We've also got an in depth look at what we definitely know about Far Cry 5 direct from Ubisoft, with even more information.
