A new Far Cry 6 update is great for some players, completely irrelevant for other players. The latest Far Cry game from Ubisoft is available on a variety of platforms. In fact, it’s available on just about every modern platform other than Nintendo Switch. That said, the new update is only relevant to Xbox users across Xbox One, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X. And because the update is technically a hotfix, it means Xbox users won’t even have anything to download.ย

“The Far Cry series has always known how to keep players busy, and Far Cry 6 is no different,” reads the opening of our review of the game. “Yara feels bigger than most open-world playgrounds and is filled with things to do, though unfortunately for completionists, many of those activities seldom feel rewarding enough to pursue. A superb villain made even more special considering Far Cry’s prestigious roster of antagonists and plenty of turn-your-brain-off quests keep Far Cry 6 engaging, but it definitely feels as though the Far Cry formula has now been stretched thin.”
