Dive into the world of FarCry New Dawn

Far Cry New Dawn is a standalone narrative sequel to Far Cry 5. Many were disappointed with the ending of the fifth numbered entry in the series, and New Dawn aims to provide closure to that story. Set 17 years after the nuclear war, the remaining survivors aim to rebuild the land of Hope’s County but they are attacked by a band of Highwaymen led by twin sisters Mickey and Lou. You take control of a customised captain of security, and are entrusted with duty of bringing peace to the land.

You can upgrade all of the facilities in your home base, such as weapons, cartography, medicine and explosives, using ethanol. It is obtained through specific vehicles in the open world or by capturing the game’s outpost. Once conquered, you can then let go of it to generate more ethanol, which also increases the difficulty level for that outpost; allowing you to capture it again for better rewards. Expeditions are fun treasure hunts where players must locate a package and bring it back to their home base. Other than that, the list of new features is limited, which to be fair is expected from a budget release. All of this is tied into the resources system, which allows you to craft weapons or other items using the various resources you have in stock.
