Far Cry 5 review
In case you hadn’t realised by now, we like this game a lot. It’s a clever refinement to a series that needed a refresh. Like Assassin’s Creed: Origins last year, Ubisoft has taken a beloved series and given it enough attention to make it feel new again. An almost complete success, then. With fantastic villains, a compelling narrative, and gameplay that begs to be devoured, after 30 hours playing the story, we are still going back to mop up side quests. Far Cry 5 might just be the best one of the series yet, and that’s before we even see what the community does with the intriguing Arcade Mode.
Hope County is beautiful to explore; Mission delivery feels natural and enjoyable; Moment to moment it’s fantastic;
Some open world bugs and dialogue repetition; Slightly weak closing;
