Far Cry 5 will be five years old on March 27th and for Ubisoft that seems to be cause for celebration. As the publisher announced, the game will even receive a new update for the occasion.
Far Cry 5 – who doesn’t remember the trip to Hope County to put a stop to the dubious cult leader Joseph Seed. The title is now five years old and Ubisoft wants to celebrate that.
As Ubisoft announced via Twitter, the game will receive an update to mark the anniversary, which will include a “much desired feature for next-gen consoles”. So far, however, Ubisoft is still vague on what exactly belongs to the update. Should there be a genuine next-gen update coming our way? We will see.

Far Cry 5 was the fastest-selling Ubisoft title at the time (2018), selling over five million copies in the first week. However, the setting also caused controversy, as right-wing groups in particular called for a boycott because white and religious Americans appear as villains – despite the fact that the game is a fanatical cult with a subtly insane leader.
Far Cry 5 was released on March 27, 2018 and received a quasi-sequel with Far Cry: New Dawn a year later, which takes place in a different section of Hope County at a later date.
