Far Cry 4 trailer reintroduces Pagan Min with kidnapping, torture and an absurd chase sequence

I'm not especially interested in Far Cry 4's dapper antagonist, Pagan Min, and wasn't planning on posting this trailer that reintroduces him. Ubisoft makes more trailers than I can keep up with, anyway. But then I decided to watch it, and I changed my mind. 

The tiger and elephant attacks certainly look like a good time, but they are topped by a high speed chase involving a quad bike, a plane and a wingsuit. Oh, and of course an explosion. Direct your eyes below for the turned up to 11 silliness.

I am one of the apparently few people who thought that Far Cry 3's parody of colonial fiction worked very well, so I'm not going to say that I couldn't care less about its sequel's characters and narrative ambitions, but when it comes to trailers, angry animals and absurd action does win the day.

Far Cry 4 launches on October 18th, less than a week after Assassin's Creed Unity and exactly a week after The Crew, because Ubisoft are just plain loopy.
