Far Cry 7 be damned, Far Cry Primal has a gorgeous new-gen overhaul

Ubisoft isn’t having the greatest time as of late.

Star Wars Outlaws didn’t hit sales expectations, although while the game was surrounded by a cacophony of dismay, I happen to think it offers a pretty decent time.

Then, of course, Assassin’s Creed Shadows was delayed just last week.

Developers took the decision to push the game into February 2025 from its original 12 November release date.

The reason provided was that the game needed extra time to “polish and refine the experience”, which isn’t a bad thing.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows could be a stellar instalment if it isn’t rushed out before it’s ready.

While this is all happening in the public eye, behind the scenes, Ubisoft is reportedly working on Far Cry 7.

The game is rumoured to have a time limit, centering around an individual who must locate his family - who have been taken hostage - before time runs out.

Whether this proves to be true or not, we don’t know. The game has received no kind of official reveal.

In the meantime though, perhaps I can interest you in news of a Far Cry Primal overhaul you can download right now on PC.

Take a look at Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ gameplay trailer below.

I’ve always found Far Cry Primal to be one of the series’ most underrated entries, but it’s getting some renewed love thanks to a modded overhaul.

Tech wizard and YouTuber Digital Dreams has done it again, creating a mod list that transforms Far Cry Primal into a true new-gen delight.

The end result boasts sharp graphics, detailed textures, and full ray-tracing.

You can take a look at the project below.

“Never expected this game to look this good,” wrote one viewer, while another added, “WTH man, looks amazing.”

If you reckon your PC is up to the challenge of trying to emulate this, you can access a mod list full of the mods used by Digital Dreams for free in the YouTube video’s description.
