There is one goal: survive in a world where you are the prey. A day one patch for Far Cry Primal has been released, which not only promises a range of performance improvements, but also introduces an Expert Mode difficulty setting.
Utilising a number of special effects including additional antialiasing and gamma tweaks, this mod makes Far Cry Primal look much more vibrant.
And now? Now it’s getting a free content update to add a survival mode. A post-release patch that removed the game’s HUD made it even better. Though the main story amounted to nothing, there’s was something quite engrossing about surviving the wild, wild lands of Oros. A part-revelling fratboy doing the same? Not so much. I can buy a rugged caveman hunting wild animals and skinning them, fashioning new tools, weapons and gear from their innards. Yes, it does feature many of the tried-and-tested tenets of the Ubiformula, but the mechanics that were transplanted from previous Far Cry games just made so much more sense.
I really liked Far Cry Primal, Ubisoft’s open-world caveman simulator.
