This is Far Cry, with a “6” at the end instead of “5”, “4”, or “Primal.” Whether this is for good or ill is personal preference, but it still felt good going down for me.įar Cry 6 introduces players to Yara, a fictional version of Cuba with the serial numbers filed off. Shooting, running, driving, and wingsuiting, and being an inhuman monster remain largely the same as the previous entries, but there’s still fun in raising hell. Jumping into Far Cry 6 feels just like that. These things aren’t always the best, but they are familiar. An old sofa that sags on one side, a worn-in pair of kicks, a blanket that’s soft as hell, but doesn’t keep you warm. “Familiarity breeds contempt,” says the old adage, but familiarity can also be a hallmark of the comfortable.
