Believe it or not, but Far Cry 5‘s deep dive into a doomsday cult is one of the more realistic scenarios the franchise has tackled. Which makes it even more baffling that Ubisoft is taking the game’s planned Season Pass into such strange territory.
The Season Pass will include three downloadable expansions, and each one pits players against a rather… different… set of adversaries:
Far Cry 5’s Season Pass
- Hours of Darkness: Players will travel back in time to Vietnam to battle against Việt Cộng soldiers
- Dead Living Zombies: Players will face hordes of zombies across multiple b-movie scenarios
- Lost On Mars: Players will leave Earth behind to go toe-to-claws with Martian arachnids
In addition to the game’s expansions, Season Pass purchasers will also receive a downloadable copy of Far Cry 3 four weeks before its available to the general public. The PS4/Xbox One re-release will be known as the “Classic Edition,” and it’ll be available sometime this Summer. PC players who purchase the Season Pass will receive the full version of Far Cry 3.
Far Cry 5 will be released for the PC, PS4, and Xbox One on March 27.
