8. Multiplayer & other things

Far Cry 5 lets you play the entire single player campaign together with a friend. So hopefully they won’t chicken out then…

While Far Cry 4 had cooperative multiplayer, this latest Far Cry game will be upping the ante and letting you play the entire single player campaign cooperatively with a friend. This is a shocking break from what Far Cry has offered in the past, although Far Cry 4 did offer cooperative multiplayer in select missions.

Also new to Far Cry 5 are the aerial dogfights, which may lead some to think why the US government doesn’t get involved when there’s a little war going on above the skies in Montana. Additionally, aside from boasting the biggest selection of weapons and vehicles (including US muscle cars) in a Far Cry game so far, this will feature melee weapons like baseball bats, meaning this latest instalment in the Far Cry franchise could be taking in-game violence and brutality to shocking new levels too…
