You may be asking what the definition of insanity is, because Ubisoft has released a new major patch for the 11-year-old gameFar Cry 4for the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Likely as a way to future-proof the title, the open world game now runs at 60 frames per second rather than its prior 30 FPS limit.

Far Cry 4 is Worth Checking Out

Far Cry 4 is worth checking out, even 11 years after its initial release. “Ubisoft has set up a massive sandbox full of stuff to do, and though getting between things can be a bit of a hassle and not all of the activities are great, the core of the game – its gunplay – is exceptional,” saidour 4/5 review.

Far Cry 4 was developed by Ubisoft Montreal.

The villains in Far Cry are usually the standout characters in the series, and that’s certainly the case in the fourth entry. Troy Baker’s audition for the role is quite striking. An assistant came in halfway through his audition, checking that there was enough coffee and water in the room, and Baker included them in an improvised scene. According to a panel at Indy PopCon 2015, Baker said that he was “going to peel [their] face off and put it on [his own]” (viaPolygon) in character. He got the role afterwards.
