"Far Cry 4 Hits 60fps on PS5"

Eleven years after its initial launch, Far Cry 4 now boasts a smooth 60 frames per second (fps) experience on the PlayStation 5. As noted by gael_74 and shared on the Far Cry 4 subreddit, version 1.08 of the game introduces "support for 60 FPS on PS5 consoles."

If you haven't played it yet, now's the perfect moment to dive into this classic. Known for featuring one of the series' most memorable antagonists, Pagan Min, Far Cry 4 immerses players in a vibrant open world set against the stunning backdrop of the Himalayas. Described as both a beautiful setting and an engaging playground, the game encourages exploration, combat, and hunting.

In IGN's review, Far Cry 4 earned a solid 8.5/10 rating for its enjoyable freedom in single-player, co-op, and competitive multiplayer modes, despite having weaker character development.

Recently, Far Cry 4 joined a growing list of PS4-era Ubisoft titles receiving updates, such as Assassin's Creed Syndicate and Assassin's Creed Origins. Fans are hopeful that similar optimizations will extend to other beloved entries in the series, like Far Cry Primal and Far Cry 3.

This update arrived slightly too late for some players who had already completed the game. "You are kidding, right? I just platinumed the game three days ago," lamented one disappointed gamer.

Last month, Ubisoft launched a new subsidiary focusing on its Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six franchises, backed by a €1.16 billion (approximately $1.25 billion) investment from Tencent. This move follows Ubisoft's announcement that Assassin's Creed Shadows surpassed 3 million players. The company has faced numerous challenges, including high-profile failures, layoffs, studio closures, and canceled projects, leading to immense pressure for success following a historic low in share prices.

Today, Ubisoft quietly added Steam achievements to the 12-year-old Splinter Cell: Blacklist.
