That said, the world of Far Cry 6, Yara - a fictional Caribbean island that is heavily based on Cuba in many aspects - is the biggest you'll ever see in a Far Cry game. It feels like padding, though it's nowhere near as bad as on Ubisoft's other major franchise, Assassin's Creed. But between those admittedly enjoyable adventures, Far Cry 6 will also make you do a series of things that aren't too different from one another. Far Cry 6 has moments of genuine inspiration where its combination of tropical paradise, co-op support, and new ideas fuse together to deliver something memorable.
It often retreads what have become Ubisoft clichés. Far Cry 6 - releasing Thursday worldwide - is not a great game.
