Discovered by gael_74 and shared on the Far Cry 4 subreddit, version 1.08 of the game’s update notes proudly announce "support for 60 FPS on PS5 consoles." If you haven’t yet dived into this action-packed adventure, now’s the perfect moment to give it a go. Featuring one of the franchise's most memorable villains, Pagan Min, Far Cry 4 immerses players in a sprawling, vibrant open world set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Himalayas. This majestic landscape isn’t just eye candy—it’s a dynamic playground encouraging exploration, combat, and hunting.

As IGN noted in their Far Cry 4 review, scoring it an impressive 8.5/10, "Despite having weaker character development, the game offers thrilling freedom through its campaign, co-op mode, and competitive multiplayer."

Far Cry 4 joins a growing list of Ubisoft’s PS4-era classics receiving retroactive upgrades, including Assassin's Creed Syndicate and Assassin's Creed Origins. Fans are hopeful this trend continues, with wishes extending to beloved entries like Far Cry Primal and Far Cry 3.

Ironically, this update arrived just a tad too late for some: "You’re kidding, right? I just platinumed the game three days ago," lamented one unfortunate player.

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 ($1.25 billion) investment from Tencent. The announcement followed Ubisoft’s successful milestone of Assassin's Creed Shadows reaching over 3 million players. The company has faced numerous challenges recently, including high-profile failures, layoffs, studio closures, and canceled projects, prompting significant pressure to deliver after experiencing record-low stock prices.

In other Ubisoft news, the publisher quietly added Steam achievements to the 12-year-old Splinter Cell: Blacklist.
