Far Cry® New Dawn

Makes you download uplay in order to use. im sick of companies making you download their shitty launchers to try to compete with steam. fuck microsoft.

Basically a DLC for Far cry 5 with more colors. Pretty fun but nothing special. Also RELEASEEEE MEEEE........... i left him there

To be honest.... after far cry 5 this felt like a downgrade... Graphics are amazing and story is good and solid but... the whole Rambo fighting of facry 5 i missed it here. There is this introduction of elite enemies which is i think weird and unnecessary. Healing takes way too long and damage that you get is insane especially on max difficulty. Was a lot of times i was running around for like 5 mins healing and trying to get a breather not couse its hard but couse i was getting shotted from the other side of the map with a sniper or rocket launcher ( which never misses ). Overall okay 8/10

For how much people complain about this game it ended up being pretty good, the twins are far from the best villains the franchise has presented but they're not that bad either. The rpg mechanics felt a little out of place but they did manage to make this game feel like the first farcry since farcry 3 that didn't seem like ubisoft was just re-using the same old formula again.

This game is fun, however it doesn't appear to fully work. There's a glitched collectible/mission, reloading doesn't work. It has been out long enough for the glitches to be fixed but it has not been patched. oof.

Think of it as a "What If" scenario for the ending of Far Cry 5. Overall though, it's a serviceable game that's just a step below it's predecessor. Achievements are also quite simple to complete. Buy it on sale!

Should have stopped after Farcry 5. Pathetic attempt of a game.

The gameplay was solid but the characters were very annoying almost as bad as Far cry 6.

Playing this game only in 2025. New Dawn is basically a sequel to Far Cry 5 and it's fantastic. - One of the best and most beautiful maps ever recreated in Far Cry. - Side missions and exploration that are worth it. - Much more dynamic and peaceful exploration. (No more kidnappings) - Excellent weapons suitable for the environment. - Expeditions mode is excellent. - Lots of ways to remember the characters and what the city was like in Far Cry 5. - Our own Settlement to evolve. - Excellent companions. There is nothing not to like here. 8.5/10. Fantastic Game.

peak far cry imo not for the story but for gameplay, although i do like the story i feel like some of the other games did it better overall 9.5/10

Good gameplay, forgettable characters. I liked the fact that is a continuation to Far Cry 5,however the story being mid,didn't serve it justice. In conclusion, 5/10, buy it only at a sale

The game was good, it's one of the last good games made by Ubisoft. +cool cast/characters +DEI - wasn't made in an obnoxious way, strong characters don't always have to be assholes +beautiful atmosphere and views +having played the other titles (specifically far cry 5), the writing feels very good and fleshed out. +shows emotion with amazing effort and makes it noticeable and felt +far cry combat:) +you can make this game into assassins creed, but actually good +It's not far cry 6 -Short -far cry combat:( -possible use of microtransactions -far cry "features" -FLAME THROWERS

I crashed while defending properity, and now I'm soft lock and I can't even interact with anything in properity. I had bad experience with most ubisoft titles. They don't seem do give a s*** about the player they only want the money.

The game's combat system has been completely ruined in order to flog more microtransactions. Weapons and enemies now come in 4 'tiers', with higher tier enemies being almost immune to your lower tier weapons. This means that whenever you encounter a new tier of enemy, all of your weapons become virtually worthless (unless you enjoy dumping an AK's entire mag into every single dude you encounter) and you have to spend ages grinding to upgrade your arsenal. Or, for the low low price of $19.99, you can skip the hassle and upgrade everything instantly! Or, for even more money, you can buy all the tier 4 weapons as soon as you leave the tutorial! So balanced! If you're a fan of Destiny 2, you'll feel right at home here. Oh also the story sucks shit. Unfortunately, I am weirdly obsessed with this shitty shitty game and will probably finish it. Please send help.

Far Cry New Dawn feels like a DLC for Far Cry 5 - and honestly, it basically is. It continues the story, using the same map (albeit with a new, more vibrant colour palette). There are some notable changes this time around - some for the better, others not so much. Weapons now come in different tiers, dealing more damage based on enemy levels. Outposts can be reset with tougher enemies in exchange for better loot, which adds a bit of replayability. The core gameplay loop revolves around upgrading your home base, which in turn allows you to craft better weapons so you can gather more materials and take on stronger enemy strongholds. It’s a satisfying system, and genuinely fun. The story, however, is pretty rubbish. It’s somewhat interesting to see the aftermath of Far Cry 5 and how it all wraps up, but everything else falls flat. I couldn’t care less about any of the new characters, and the villains - the twin sisters - feel like they were ripped straight out of Borderlands 3. Cringy, unfunny, and completely lacking in presence or intimidation. Just bad. It’s probably a 7/10. Actually, I’ll give it a 7.5 out of 10 solely because you can unlock a double jump near the end of the game

It's the same as in any Far Cry game except that it seems like the game was just slapped along quickly. Blind people can drive cars, no depth in the game and character design, the environment seems dead and random. Unfortunatly here also is a Coop-/Multiplayer-Achievement and still a few bugs. Even though the setting really offers a lot of potential.

I played this before playing the far cry 5. Turns out its the continue story of it. I played this on the difficult gameplay. The story is quite a bit bored and a bit too short. I don't understand the idea of capturing the outpost three times each with increasing difficulity. Whats the point of it ? Mickey and Lou stories are bit boring. Well I give the thumbs up anyway, I like the graphics.

Feels like a recycled version of Far Cry 5 with pink spray paint slapped on everything. The villains are forgettable, the story is shallow, and the RPG-style bullet sponges ruin the fun. It’s like Far Cry went post-apocalyptic... and forgot to bring the fun. Also it plays more like a glorified DLC than a proper sequel

the game is really good and i personally just love all far cry games but i thought this was just a normal game like realistic but the SPOILER ALERT! you get some powers from the villian from far cry 5 and get super strength and other stuff its just a really cool game

The game is ok but really is an expensive DLC of Far Cry 5 or like i like to say a "Far Cry5.5" story is honestly shit exept the parts with the goat : Joseph Seed. Couldn't say if i recommand it or not, but the game is good and well it's the continuation of the masterpiece FarCry5.

"RELEASE ME" is like, the ONLY reason I played this game. Really cool atmosphere though Uhhh.... That's all the good things I can say. Should've had this as DLC for Far Cry 5 instead of a standalone game, and the character customization was REALLY lacking, compared to the previous installment. The game was more linear, instead of Far Cry 5 being "Do whatever region you want first, but we recommend x first"

I prefer the "DLC" over Far Cry 5, this should have been released as a DLC rather than a "new game". It is relatively short and has the same world activitites as Far Cry 5 in my opinion. The cons: - Not very good optimized, crashes and freezes are common. - Connects and launches over Ubisdoft Connect application. - Headshots on close range dont register sometimes which can be frustrating. Even at long range this happens. - Still a good amount of bugs present.

*PLAY FAR CRY 5 BEFORE NEW DAWN* This game SHOULD have been released as a DLC to Far Cry 5 for two reasons. 1, it's too short to be considered a "game" in my opinion... and 2, what happens in "New Dawn" is directly related to Far Cry 5. It's the sequel to the game. Though it's not necessary, I HIGHLY recommend you play number 5, before picking up New Dawn so that you can understand who the characters are, what the notes are about, the "easter eggs" etc. You need to learn the back story to New Eden/Eden's Gate and Joseph Seed. I finished Far Cry 5 which was probably my favorite Far Cry yet, and went straight for this one, and I am SO happy I played them in that order. This game was fun, but I WISH there was more to it. The graphics are beautiful. The beginning will have you hooked. It's a great game, and focuses on base building/survival and taking back your territory after the "Highwaymen" took everything from you. If you enjoyed number 5, play this one. I'll give it about a 6 or 7 out of 10, but it feels like it's lacking compared to other games from the series.

Way better than I expected. This is a pretty good continuation from Far cry 5.

Very atmospheric game world, especially in 4K or 2K with ultra settings. The story is interesting, though a bit sad toward the end. I didn't encounter any bugs or lags during my playthrough. I definitely recommend this game to all Far Cry fans — it's essentially the next chapter of Far Cry 5, showing what happened after the nuclear explosion. My only wish is that there were more unique vehicles. Many of them feel like copy-pasted versions with just different paint jobs.

Great story great characters and overall a great game!

The twins are annoying and poorly written. The whole game feels like a dlc. Clothing options suck and it looks trash. It feels like they where just trying to stretch Far cry 5 assets as far as they could to make money. Also damage numbers suck. why of all things is that the innovation you added. Buy 2,3,4,5,Primal before wasting your money on this dumpster fire.

This is the start of farcry being more and more dogshit with more and more checklist mechanics that should not be in the game. All the survival crafting ruined this game and it crippled far cry 6 as well. I recommend not playing this franchise anymore after Farcry 5.

Everyone compares this game to Far Cry 5 so I will do the same: +Looting and exploration feels much more rewarding +Progression system is much better (you cannot be OP from the beginning with all silenced weapons which I thought was pretty ridicilous in Far cry 5) +Enemies have more HP and are harder to kill (if you want to make it really challenging you can also play only with Tier 1 weapons) -Story seems kinda uninteresting -Enemies that are Tier 2 or higher seem to have helmets... feels kinda useless to try to headshot those as you can kill them in the same time through bodyshots as long as you don't have piercing ammo -Less gun customization (but let's be for real Far Cry 5 also didn't have a whole lot of that unfortunately) In the end feels like an enjoyable game and I don't get why people are being that much rougher on it when reviewing it. Compared to Far cry 3, Far cry 5 also was lacking a lot of stuff in my opinion.

Generally fine as a sequel but the crafting and levelling mechanics I'm not too fond of. Enemies quickly become ridiculous bullet sponges. Good vibes and gamefeel though. Cautious recommend.

Not to say it is a bad game. I did actually enjoy playing it. The gameplay and graphics are actually pretty good. But the story felt so off when it is supposedly a sequel to an amazing game being Far Cry 5. The main villains felt so dull and not memorable at all. and josephs story only really gets some protagonism almost at the end (not to say that it has to be the main story) but the twins and josephs story feel very disconnected. Beautiful remaster of the map - making a post apocalyptic scenery that bright really did challenge the norms of what we are used to, but just wish the story was as good as the map. within the far cry series, just a mid to low tier game

not as good as far cry 5, but it is a very good game. the story is okay but the main things i love about this game are seeing the characters from far cry 5, the weapons and the missions. the new base mechanic and the expeditions are good, defiantly liked the new expirementive style for this game, the missions are fun and make you think about what happpend during the nuking of hope county in far cry 5. the graphics are very well done, big thing to mention is i am not a fan of the "radiation zone" excuse to not make a lot of the map, creative sure but very large sections of the map are not accessible. overall i recommend this game especially if you played and loved far cry 5, but if you never played far cry 5 i recommend playing it first.

hate on this game is so forced, yea it has its downsides but it's really good game and if you like other far cry games you'll like this game too

Game crashes while playing the "into the bliss" mission and soft locks you out of everything else until you get it done

The game is pretty fun, the villains are a pretty big downgrade to Far cry 5, the combat is also slightly worse but overall pretty fun, the only bad thing are all the collecting places i mean 105 of them is just too much. Overall 7/10 unfortunately just feels like a downgrade the only 10/10 thing i could give it is world building but that was stolen from far cry so yea. Joseph still a peak antagonist tho.

I understand that many people dislike this game, but I don’t share that sentiment. Rather, I find myself in the opposite camp. I appreciate almost everything about the game, aside from the story and the price when it isn’t on sale. Given what it is, I don’t believe this game is worth 60 USD, and I can see why others feel frustrated by that. Ultimately, I find the game to be just okay. I enjoy the crafting mechanics usually. I’m not a fan of crafting in games, but this title makes it straightforward and somewhat enjoyable to create various weapons and vehicles. The gameplay follows the classic Far Cry formula that we’ve come to love since Far Cry 3. Overall, it’s just an okay game.

Honest review, ASS, beat it just cause i wanted to see the story but it's the worst farcry i've played game and i played all of them, no money system you build your weapons, small map compared to the other games, boring i played it for a few hours didn't come back til months later just so i could beat it and delete it. the damage system is stupid the enemies and weapons are leveled in a dumb way. controller barley worked on steam version. if you go down don't expect your companions to get you up. the amount of times they call you they was annoying how hard is it to say he or she in dialogue. the story is quick and should've been a dlc for 5. THE WORST THING ABOUT THE GAME IS THE AMOUNT OF MICRO TRANSACTIONS THAT ARE IN YOUR FACE AT EVERY TURN GUNS CARS YOU NAME IT. i bought it on sale for like $4 and its not even worth that!

Basically this was the continuation of Far Cry 5, set 17 years after the nuclear apocalypse. Even though the map is smaller and the story is short, it’s very thrilling to grind for supplies and glide around the world. The visuals are beautiful, and the environments blend together seamlessly. Overall, I’d rate it 7/10.

Died of boredom in the intro part of the game and never even made it past that. Maybe I am just impatient.

Hope you don't accidentally bind this game you paid for to the wrong Ubisoft account you didn't even want in the first place even though you paid for it through Steam.

Great job Ubisoft, this gave me the nostalgia that Far Cry 5 gave me, I like how the story is set 17 years in the future from Far Cry 5. The hours to beat the game though is a little shorter than usual. 9/10

Baught this game cause of the fishing, and then i discovered you can shoot guns and it totally changed my fishing style. 10/10

I did enjoy playing this the first time i launched it. But Ubisoft in classic fashion has decided you need to have more bloatware on your system "Ubisoft Connect" so i just tried to download and install it and the direct download from UBISOFT keeps saying its corrupted and the installer fails the integrity check. so. im going to uninstall this and never play it again. FIX YOUR JUNK.

amazing game with only 2 downsides one is that if you really like a gun at the start there is a high chance it will be unusable near the end as enemies have a health system and two the game is kind of short would have loved it to be longer

Honestly, extremely underrated. New Dawn serves as a much more arcadey, but yet very solid sequel to FC5, and id recommend it to anyone, especially those who've beaten Far Cry 5 and want to see the conclusion to Joseph Seed's story. I wont lie, the game isn't perfect, and the writing can be a little goofy at times (especially regarding the twins and their character development)- but however, the game serves its purpose as the sequel to my favorite game in the series (5)- and all in all is a great game. Please don't listen to those who hate on this game, and go into it with an open mind and just have fun! Far Cry New Dawn for me, is a solid 7.5/10. Give it a shot, and become your own "Judge" ;)

The characters can be a bit too much at times. Good game, but i could never call this a FarCry game.

if you like being called degrading things by two black women or if you like a unrealistic nuclear wasteland then this game is for you 10/10 would goon to women again

The game was very fun, but the ending really leaves much to be desired

Yes the game is fun,i genuinely love many of the changes on the Far Cry formula. But DAMN do the "villains" suck, how can you go from such a depiction of conservative ideals and religious indoctrination to nothing more than simple bandits ?
