Far Cry Primal's main character, Takkar, will be voiced by Elias Toufexis, the actor who plays Adam Jensen in Square Enix's Deus Ex: Human Revolution and next year's Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

Toufexis announced his involvement today on Twitter. "Yeah. I play the lead character in this bad boy. #FarCryPrimal" he said.

He's probably best known for Adam Jensen, but Toufexis has voiced characters in games like Assassin's Creed Unity and Splinter Cell: Blacklist, among other video game and TV projects.

Far Cry Primal is a "full-fledged single-player experience," set in 10,000 BC, at a time when "massive beasts like the woolly mammoth and sabertooth tiger ruled the Earth." As Takkar, a hunter and last surviving member of his hunting group, players arrive in an area called Oros with the singular goal of survival.

For lots more on Far Cry Primal, which launches in 2016 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC, watch the developer diary above and check out some images in the gallery below.

Oh yeah ! Loved Adam Jensen's voice from Deus Ex: HR. Now I am really looking forward to this title. So far so good Ubisoft. But please... PLEASE... do justice to the PC version of the game. No more downgrades !

Cool concept, but I really hope I has some sort of twist.

Fighting with a spear,club and a bow ( what else could you make at that time? ) sound kinda boring if you have to do that the entire game.

With the area being called Oros, perhaps Ubisoft will make a deal with Oreos, you know, "Explore more of Oros with Oreos". Then people will be all like, "I never asked for this".

What the hell is this shit? The only decent Far Cry game is the first - just make a new damn IP to slap the numbers on after each soulless reskin and leave this already bastardized franchise to rot in peace.

This game actually sounds interesting. Hey Ubisoft, call me when you ditch Uplay.

Toufexis must be on life support at this point. Why, doing such back breaking, punishing and demanding work such as voice acting for Deus Ex and this within the same time span? Surely he must be bedded for the forthcoming months to recuperate.

Nothing against Elias, that was a jab at the "voice actors union" bullshit.

@datriax: I was under the impression their beef was more with not getting enough info on exactly what was expected of them before they showed up. And also with wanting an honest to god stunt co-coordinator there when they do some of them more rigorous full body motion capture.

I just wanted to say : nobody gives a frack. As of the matter, you could use any random dude with an Ok voice . As if I bought video games because of the voice actors. Ludicrous

@xolivierx: I care too. After Vaas and Pagan Min, I really care about interesting characters in FC series.

@xolivierx: I care. I'm not going to buy a game just because Troy Baker's in it, but I like to know if anybody whose work I liked before is a game I might be interested in.

Funny. Two games launching the exact same day, with exactly the same voice actor playing the main character in both games (Far Cry Primal and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided). Has that ever happened before?

@runstalker: I don't know, but I never asked for this!

I wouldn't be surprised if Troy Baker or someone had it happen though.
