Far Cry New Dawn is best viewed as a spin off sequel from Far Cry 5, carrying on from the end of that game but transporting the action to a post-apocalyptic setting, a nightmarish vision of Hope County that’s covered in vibrant overgrowth and armed assailants. Sadly, while Far Cry New Dawn has a lot of interesting new ideas, and it largely doesn’t do enough to distance itself from the franchise it spins off from. If you’re not a total mark for the Far Cry franchise though, the familiarity can breed contempt and the concept of playing the same game over and over again might tire you out.
This is great news if, like me, you fell in love with Far Cry 3 and have eagerly hoovered up every installment since.
Still, the joke is on Vaas, because Far Cry 3 did so many things right that Ubisoft leaned hard into all of the things that made the game interesting: an unhinged-yet-magnetic antagonist, the slow drip of upgrades as the player plods their way around the map wiped out icons, sneaking your way into an enemy outpost to disable the alarms before you start shooting.
Far Cry 3 ‘s deranged protagonist Vaas entered the annals of pop culture quotes by asking players “Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is? Insanity is doing the exact… same f*****g thing over and over again expecting s**t to change That.
