Far Cry 6: say goodbye to the map editor and Arcade Mode

Far Cry 6: say goodbye to the map editor and Arcade Mode

Although Ubisoft was rather silent about Far Cry 6 since its official announcement at last year's Ubisoft Forward, things have been quite different for a few weeks now. Ubisoft has opened the floodgates of information and gamers who are eagerly awaiting the release of Far Cry 6 have been able to discover many things about the game in the last few days. 

More specifically, we got to know its release date: Far Cry 6 will be released on October 7th on PC, as well as on Playstation and Xbox consoles. A gameplay reveal took place just a few days ago, and several facts about the game were made public, including that you will be able to play as either a male or a female character. One of the most surprising things from the reveal is that the footage shows our character in third-person view. This may seem anecdotal if you're not a fan of the Far Cry series, but it's something unusual, as the hero never appears. Ubisoft has confirmed that in Far Cry 6 the main character, Dani Rojas, will have a deeper story.

 


Another piece of information that we discovered via an AMA (Ask me Anything) session on Reddit, is that Far Cry 6 will not feature a map editor, nor an Arcade mode, which disappointed many fans.

 

"No, Arcade is not coming back. Removing this mode from our plan was a difficult decision, but it allowed us to focus our efforts on the main campaign, transporting players into the heart of a modern-day guerrilla revolution."

 

This is the explanation provided by Alexandre Letendre, Game Director of Far Cry 6. However, it has been confirmed that the campaign will still be playable in co-op. This doesn't completely close the door on the possibility of multiplayer in Far Cry 6, but if the game offers it, it will be in a different form. We should know more in the coming months.
