I'm really excited to give this one a go.

MajorLazer1958d ago

Are they charging full price for this one?

Jimboms1957d ago

No I'm pretty sure it's a tenner cheaper wherever you are, so $50/$40 or £50/£40. Probably about £40, just because it's using the same engine and doesn't have some of the stuff Far Cry 5 did.

foster4261959d ago

so this is basically a FC5 expansion. Loved FC5 so I can't wait to play this

porkChop1959d ago

Yeah, it's FC 5.5 with a bunch of new stuff.

jagermaster6191959d ago

This or rage 2? Really liked fc5 but rage looks better to me.

porkChop1959d ago

Rate 2 comes out 3 months later, and FC: New Dawn is budget priced. Why not just get both?

jagermaster6191959d ago

I'll probably wait a little for New Dawn and see how it looks when it releases. So far (to me) it doesn't seem that great, kinda like it's dlc for 5 but let's see if they prove me wrong.

RememberThe3571959d ago

I trust Ubi Montreal more than I trust Avalanche to make a fun game. The Far Cry formula might be getting dry though so maybe Rage 2 will hit a fresher tone. But from the gameplay I've seen so far New Dawn looks more fun, Rage 2 gameplay has just looked way too staged so far.

Kabaneri1959d ago

I hope this one has a dynamic weather system, one of my gripes with Far Cry 5 was that it kept the same day in a loop.

Played and enjoyed Far Cry, Far Cry 3 and 4 campaigns .

-Foxtrot44d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor44d ago

Yeah, 4 was good, was hard choosing which Golden Dawn member to side with, when they were both pieces of sh!t.
I've beaten all the main entries except 2 and 6, ended up uninstalling 6 to download something else instead.

Profchaos44d ago

I'd love a far cry pack with the original PC game (not the half assed port on ps360) instincts, predator even a port of far cry 2 to modern consoles back when these games had their own identity and weren't far cry 3 cut and pastel

Demetrius44d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger8844d ago (Edited 44d ago )

Same here, I don't know why these games get so much hate. I've thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them, with only a couple of exceptions. I wish they'd hurry up and announce Far Cry 7. The only thing I'm concerned about is the rumoured time limit.

Far Cry 5 Has Surpassed 30 Million Players Worldwide

The 2018 first-person shooter has reached this milestone exactly 5 years after its initial release.

Profchaos395d ago

When you're free on every single service it's eventually going to happen.

Profchaos394d ago

Part of PS plus at the moment

ChasterMies394d ago

Far Cry 5 is “free” if you pay for PS+ Extra.

gangsta_red394d ago

Going to have to try and get back into Far Cry. The formula for Far Cry may be fun, but it gets repetitive very fast.

Demetrius394d ago

Been playing this series since far cry 3 I love the adventuring vibe this series gives off even far cry primal is so good, but experiencing far cry 5 in 60 fps crisp graphics on ps5 for the first time is dope it adds life to it, I wana give far cry 6 a second chance couldn’t get into it at first I wonder if it’s worth it

Far Cry 5 in native 60 FPS - available for PS5 & Xbox Series consoles now

Far Cry 5 Official Twitter: "You've been waiting long enough… Welcome to Hope County! Experience Far Cry 5 in native 60 FPS - available for PS5 & Xbox Series consoles … NOW! Far Cry 5 will also have a FREE WEEKEND from March 23-27 on all consoles & PC. Enjoy!"

banger88408d ago

Damn. I replayed it recently on SX with fps boost, and to achieve that they had to downgrade the resolution. Game played great but looked like ass. Wish I had've waited.

blackblades408d ago (Edited 408d ago )

So you saying fps boost lowers the resolution to achieve 60fps? Cause that culteastwitch was praising in a fanboy cok suking way.

Darkwatchman408d ago

It depends on the game. Some keep Xbox One X resolution. Others drop to base Xbox One resolution and settings.

Knushwood Butt408d ago

Nice
Waiting to play this on Extra but have had too much else to play.
So is this a native PS5 version or does the PS4 version run at 60fps on PS5?

Jin_Sakai408d ago

As expected, Far Cry 5 will now run at 60 frames-per-second on PS5,

“as part of a patch that optimises the PS4 game on Sony's new-gen console.”

Knushwood Butt408d ago

Downloading now. I might do a bit of pancake gaming this weekend.

Eidolon408d ago

Not native PS5. But still looked pretty good on PS4 Pro, and at a solid 60fps, definitely a good experience. Sadly games can't break out of PS4 Pro resolutions, for some reason.

LucasRuinedChildhood407d ago

PS4 games can run 2-2.5 times better on PS5. They're basically just changing the framerate cap to take advantage of that. They could actually change the resolution but it might affect the framerate - it's not a native PS5 game so it can't properly take advantage of the hardware. 1620p isn't bad, tbh.

Eidolon408d ago

Was really hoping to read that New Dawn would be upgraded as well. :( Already beat Far Cry 5 + and only like 1 hr into New Dawn.

KeeseToast408d ago (Edited 408d ago )

Pretty nice 👍
Now we’ll only need fps boost for:
Arkham Knight
Bloodborne
The Last Guardian
Assassin‘s Creed Unity
Shadow of the Colossus
Gravity Rush 2

Did I forget something?

Welshy408d ago

The worst part about AC Unity is that it *does* run natively at 60fps, but only when running the 1.0 version from the disc. If you allow the game to update, future patches applied a 30fps cap for some reason.

I don't see any reason it would be difficult to just lift the cap that they added.

CML2407d ago

Shadow of the Colossus already runs at 60fps.
Its possible to play The Last Guardian at 60fps with an unpatched disc version too.

Stanjara407d ago

So why not unlock framerate cap on the latest version? Can't be that hard.

CML2407d ago

Probably because the studio doesnt exist anymore. 🥲

LucasRuinedChildhood407d ago (Edited 407d ago )

Absolutely. RDR2 still sells very well so the lack of a next gen version after GTA5 next gen is really annoying.
