Here’s some good news for those of you who own Ubisoft’s latest Far Cry 5. Ubisoft has just announced that Far Cry 3 Classic Edition, the remastered version of Far Cry 3, is available right now for those who own the season pass for Far Cry 5 on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Far Cry 3 is an open world first person shooter game by Ubisoft that was first released way back in 2012 on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 as well as PC. The game was a critical smash upon release with many praising it’s story, gameplay, setting as well its characters, most notably the game’s big baddie, Vaas Montenegro, who some consider to be one of the best villains in a video game ever.
Here’s a quick summary of Far Cry 3 (via Steam) if you’re not familiar with it:
Far Cry 3 is an open world first-person shooter set on an island unlike any other. A place where heavily armed warlords traffic in slaves. Where outsiders are hunted for ransom. And as you embark on a desperate quest to rescue your friends, you realize that the only way to escape this darkness… is to embrace it.
