Far Cry 6 - Gameplay and First Impressions

 In july last year we got our first look at far cry 6

and that was a dramatic cinematic 

trailer some screenshots and basic information about the game however today finally we get to see some that juicy gameplay 

and learn more about what this massive 

game has in store for us there's a lot to take in here a big thanks to ubisoft for sponsoring this one and let me have a peek at the game early now for those not familiar with far cry 6 this time around it's set in the tropical nation of yara an island deep in the heart of the caribbean 

that's not so loosely based on cuba 

it's quite different from hope county 

though the fictional region of montana

from far cry 5 and it's also 

a return to a tropical setting according 

to ubisoft it's their most 

ambitious world yet and they want you to 

feel like you're really exploring an 

entire country with 

jungles beaches villages town swamps and 

of course the capital city the game's first built up urban environment 

and you can of course expect plenty of 

wildlife too 

in this game you play as danny rojas a 

guerrilla fighter born in the country's 

capital city 

of esperanza you can customize dany at 

the beginning of the game with two 

different character models available

male or female both with their own voice 

acting and you're part of a revolution 

against

yara's ruler and dictator anton castillo

played by none other than giancarlo 

esposito 

and the cutscenes do look fantastic anton has been in power for 50 years and the island has been cut off from the world after a violent revolution and this plays into the story of the game because the country itself

is essentially isolated and frozen in 

time

and this is shown in the architecture 

weaponry and vehicles around the place

anton is determined to return yara back 

to its former glory but in doing so he's

[ __ ] down on most of the freedoms of the 

people

issued brutal social reforms and anyone 

who speaks out against him

is forced into labor camps one person 

alone is not a revolution though

although it can be the spark 

and you're going to need some friends to

help you out clara garcia is the friend 

of libertad a revolutionary group fighting

back against anton castillo and she's 

the main protagonist that you work with

and then her mentor juan cortes also 

happens to be a guerrilla master and

master of invention 

and he will provide you with all of the

weapons that you could ever need 

speaking of which let's talk about guns

first of all far cry 6 has the biggest 

roster of weapons in any far cry game

with 49 military grade weapons now 

because of the era and the country of

yara being lost in time you should 

expect modern weapons but also

older generation guns from the 

revolution and earlier wars

lmgs sniper rifles assault rifles you 

name it there's also armor-piercing

rounds that will help kill enemies who 

are wearing helmets

and explosive arrows to go with the 

compound bow at the core of the game

though is a system called resolver 

this applies to other parts of the game

too but it's most apparent when it comes 

to the weapons resolver

is a real life philosophy from cuba and 

it means to solve

and it's all about using resourcefulness 

and creativity to get things done

in yara because the island has been cut 

off for decades people have become used

to making do with what they have 

and making the most of it this means

you're going to be able to make use of 

some very wild and wacky weapons

scavenging sardine cans car batteries 

old motorcycle engines car mufflers you name it it

could be used as a weapon 

and it makes for some very different

combinations it's not just the weapons 

themselves either it also includes

attachments such as scopes you're going 

to be able to add suppressors

sights different magazines laser 

pointers and while some of them will be

military grade there will also be 

resolver versions of them too

and alongside all of the impressive 

weaponry you're going to have a few

gadgets at your disposal 

their own eyes will be great for silent

and stealthy kills emp 

grenades are brilliant at taking out

cameras and alarms and of course 

baseballs for nothing other than hitting

enemies in the head to distract them 

before you take them down

you can also customize all of your gear 

and perks are tied directly to the gear

this time you can change your headgear 

chest hands legs feet by changing up different

pieces of gear 

you'll find ways to complement your play

style for example marksman goggles will 

improve headshot damage being incredibly

useful 

if you want to snipe at a long distance

or you're accurate and vest pants and 

shoes can give you stuff like improved

stealth and mobility and gloves can 

improve accuracy with throwing knives

there's a lot of customization 

in this game you also get something

called supremo backpacks something new 

to the series these are very much in

line with the resolver philosophy the 

backpacks come with a special

ability like the exterminator pack which 

is an insane looking artillery strike

just 

sitting there waiting on your back these can be really useful if you've sounded

an alarm or you're in trouble they can 

then blow up any reinforcement at range

and there are others that you can choose 

from too all having unique attacks now

artillery backpacks are cool and all but 

do you know what would be really cool a

pet crocodile 

called guapo that can attack people for 

you thankfully 

you're in luck because that's exactly 

what you're getting thanks for 

hire is back in far cry 6 but this time 

they're called 

amigos for hire you may have already 

seen the little wiener dog in a 

wheelchair called chorizo 

he's one of the amigos that you can call 

on but guapo is a very different ally 

as you can imagine he's great in the 

water and really useful in swampy areas 

of the map 

and well it's just funny insane 

hilarious setting a crocodile 

on an unsuspecting enemy so you've got 

your guns you've got your pet crocodile 

but you're gonna need some wheels in far 

cry 6 you can travel by land sea or 

air although air could be a bit more 

tricky to begin with and i'll explain 

why in a minute in far cry 6 players 

will now have their very own ride and 

it'll be customizable inside and out and 

you can have it delivered pretty much 

anywhere around the world the resolver 

theme carries across to the vehicles as 

well so expect 

turrets plows countermeasures and plenty 

of other customization options for your 

wheels and there are horses too 

if you want to be old-school getting 

around the world isn't going to be 

entirely straightforward though anton 

has the country under a very 

strict ruling and the capital city of 

esperanza is under martial law 

speaking of which this capital city is a 

huge sprawling urban environment 

something quite different from far cry 6 

and that brings with it some very 

interesting unique verticality in the 

gameplay it's going to be really 

interesting to see 

how well he can traverse through the 

city and the rest of the world 

the roads themselves are controlled by 

checkpoints and anton has flat cannons 

controlling the air 

these play a part of the story and you 

are able to take control of the 

checkpoints too 

fighting your way through to overrun 

them and this will make traveling by 

road easier 

and yes destroying the flat cannons one 

by one will enable you to fly 

uncontested they are in military areas 

all over the island though 

so it could take some work outposts of 

act two called fnd bases the military 

has just taken over everything here 

schools 

museums tv stations farms there's a ton 

of locations that used to belong to 

citizens of yara and you can fight 

through them 

capture them all and try to return them 

to the people this isn't the first 

revolution here though there was one 

back in 1917 

and thanks to that there is a sprawling 

network of hidden paths that libertad 

and yourself can use to get around the 

country 

underground locations hidden jungle 

routes all can be used if you want to 

get around and avoid trouble 

they can also get you new gear and intel 

but if you do want to risk it in plain 

sight far cry 6 has a new feature that 

lets players holster their weapons 

and this lets you interact in the world 

without being pestered by soldiers 

constantly get too close though or enter 

a restricted area 

and you're going to be in trouble so 

wrapping things up today 

it looks like far cry 6 is shaping up to 

be a really fun experience the world 

itself 

is incredibly detailed and varied and it 

seems that there's a ton of 

customization in the game from the guns 

the gear and the vehicles to really 

allow you to have some fun and 

epic moments as soon as i can get that 

crocodile though guapo 

i think that's all i might do and while 

the game is telling a pretty 

serious dark story it will be allowing 

you to have fun along the way 

and that's all guys.
