Far Cry 6 test: no revolución for the saga, here are all the notes in the world

06.10.2021

Expected for October 7, Far Cry 6 has been in the spotlight for a few minutes, since Ubisoft has given the green light so that the press can finally give its verdict on this new episode. We were also expecting a lot from Far Cry Cuban sauce, especially with the presence of the actor Giancarlo Esposito, used to playing us bad-ass villain roles in cinema and in TV series. The latter also seems to have taken on the role of Antón Castillo’s dictator wonderfully since critics praise his presence in the game. It is on the other hand on the gameplay side that the game has trouble standing out, Far Cry not doing than to resume a formula already known and which are struggling to renew. Likewise, many mechanics announced as revolutionary for the series turn out to be quite anecdotal, and the whole customization part does not add much (it is an FPS and we only rarely see its character), especially that the evolution of his avatar is less impactful than before. There are obviously small novelties that mark the spirits, such as cockfighting and vehicle races, but it seems that the driving is still a point to improve. On the other hand, we can have fun with the arsenal which tries an original approach. Results : Far Cry 6 gets the correct 76% rating on Metacritic, which is worse than episode 5, who left with an 81%.
