From my time in the Far Cry 6 demo, it's clear that Dani Rojas is not as sturdy. Your unnamed Deputy could go toe-to-toe with many of the forces you encountered, standing tall with gun ablaze. The Guerrilla Fight From the Shadowsįar Cry 5 featured in-your-face gameplay. All told, Far Cry 6 seems to be building a bridge between the first game and what the series has become. There are small, rural towns near the beaches, massive farms, military outposts, and even larger cities like Esperanza. Unlike the first game, Far Cry 6 has more signs of human habitation. Its color palette is warmer than Far Cry 5's Hope County or Far Cry 4's Kyrat. Yara recalls the first game's tropical climate, with swaying palm trees, quiet mountain passes, and bright, blue oceans. Once you take up a machete as a combatant, Far Cry 6 feels more like a return to early series entries. During your farewell shindig, Castillo cracks down on the city of Esperanza, killing your friends and turning you into a fledging guerrilla fighter. You play as Dani Rojas (the name is the same whether you choose the male or female version of the character), a former soldier who wants to flee to America.
