far cry's brand of open world gameplay mixed with focused storytelling and emergent action has turned the series into one of ubisoft's biggest properties over the years and with far cry NUMBER_TOKEN ubisoft seems to be ramping things up in more ways than one after nearly NUMBER_TOKEN hours with the game we can confidently say that we're excited about how it's shaping up here we're going to talk about our biggest takeaways from the opening few hours of far cry before we go ahead a quick request we upload new videos every single day and your subscription matters a lot so please consider subscribing and enable all notifications by clicking the bell icon with that out of the way let's begin the open world the open world settings are always a crucial part of far cry games because exploring those worlds and engaging with all the optional content is a core part of the series loop far cry NUMBER_TOKEN's yara thankfully might just turn out to be one of the series best efforts to date it's a dense lush location full of forest and natural beauty which of course is something you'd expect to see in every far cry game setting but yara also feels unique from what the series has done in its past because it's also got quite a lot of pockets of civilization scattered throughout exploring actual towns and urban locations or semi-urban at least in a far cry game is definitely a pretty fresh feeling of course there's still so much of the map that we've yet to see but based on what we've seen so far it is doing a good job of capturing various facets of the island nation while still feeling quite organic exploration of course that means that yara also has plenty of room for exploration the natural beauty of the map's more lush and overgrown environments is plenty of motivation to keep exploring in and of itself but there's quite a lot else going on as well a lot of it is stuff you'd expect but some side activities also dive deep into the history of yara itself in some really interesting ways as you hunt for relics scattered throughout the map these can take you to caves involved sections that focus on light platforming or on puzzles require you to read maps and the like if far cry NUMBER_TOKEN can consistently deliver similarly engaging activities that don't go about things in a generic way throughout the entirety of its experience that full open world will be an absolute treat to explore site activities of course far cry NUMBER_TOKEN's open world is also packed with the kind of side content you'd expect from the series there's plenty of characters who hide outside quests npcs who tell you about points of interest on the map enemy installments and outposts to clear and take over checkpoints to clear and more your primary goal in far cry NUMBER_TOKEN after all is to topple the ruling regime and while a lot of that is done in ways that are pretty unique for a far cry game and more on this in a bit plenty of the series tried and true open world activities fit in pretty nicely into that framework as well traversal the actual traversal is something far cry games typically excel at and far cry NUMBER_TOKEN is looking to keep that going there's quite a lot of vehicles that you can drive around yara and you can also summon them once you're a couple of hours into the game while both the parachute and grappling hook are available very early on as well far cry NUMBER_TOKEN will of course also have the wingsuit and you can also ride horses around the entire map
