Ubisoft has announced a free giveaway to celebrate new Far Cry release. The Far Cry series has been on ice since 2021, when Ubisoft released Far Cry 6 to a mixed reception. With this mixed reception, there have now been four Far Cry games in a row that haven’t quite landed: Far Cry 6, Far Cry: New Dawn, Far Cry 5, and Far Cry: Primal. The last time the series released a game that was universally praised was 2014’s Far Cry 4. This may explain why Far Cry 7 is reportedly making some massive, and controversial, changes to the formula.
