Far Cry 4 Hits 60fps on PS5

Over a decade since its initial release, Far Cry 4 now delivers silky-smooth 60fps gameplay on PlayStation 5.

As first discovered by gael_74 in the Far Cry 4 subreddit, the latest 1.08 patch notes confirm the addition of PS5 60fps support.

For those who missed this Himalayan adventure the first time around, now's the perfect opportunity to experience Far Cry 4. Home to the unforgettable villain Pagan Min, the game immerses players in a vibrant open world where the towering Himalayan terrain isn't just scenic - it's an interactive battlefield begging for exploration, combat, and wild encounters.

While criticized for its character development, our Far Cry 4 review awarded it 8.5/10 for its "fantastic open-ended gameplay across campaign, co-op, and competitive multiplayer modes."

Far Cry 4 joins a growing list of remastered PS4-era Ubisoft titles including Assassin's Creed Syndicate and Assassin's Creed Origins. The community has voiced strong demand for similar 60fps updates for franchise favorites like Far Cry Primal and Far Cry 3.

Some players' timing proved unfortunate, with one redditor complaining: "Seriously? I literally just earned the platinum trophy three days ago."

Meanwhile, Ubisoft recently established a new subsidiary focused on its flagship franchises (Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, Rainbow Six) following a €1.16 billion investment from Tencent.

This corporate restructuring follows the successful launch of Assassin's Creed Shadows (3+ million players) amidst widespread studio challenges including underperforming releases, staff reductions, location shutdowns, and axed projects - all contributing to Ubisoft's stock hitting record lows.

In related news, Ubisoft stealthily implemented Steam Achievements for the 12-year-old tactical shooter Splinter Cell: Blacklist earlier today.
