'Far Cry 6' Gameplay Details: Fan-Favorite Arcade Mode Removed

"Far Cry 6" is scheduled to release on various gaming platforms on Oct. 7, 2021. The game promises to feature a brand new narrative, new characters, environments and weapons that will surely captivate gamers. Moreover, Ubisoft recently confirmed that the upcoming AAA title will have this unexpected feature post-game.

The latest information about the upcoming game "Far Cry 6" was revealed by Lead Game Designer David Grivel in an interview with content creator and YouTuber JoRaptor. During the interview, Grivel mentioned that once players completed the game's main story, there is "something else" that they will have to do. The game designer did not go into any specifics about this.

However, he later noted that more details about this feature would be revealed at the upcoming Ubisoft Forward event, which would happen at E3 2021. What Grivel teased in the interview could mean a lot of things. A lot of games offer different ways in which players could enjoy the game even after players are technically through with it. At the moment, it is impossible to tell what the end game content of "Far Cry 6" will look like.

Ubisoft previously revealed that the upcoming title would feature a notoriety system. This enables enemies to recognize the player. A recent Reddit AMA was conducted by the gaming studio to coincide with the game's release date announcement. One interesting piece of information about the game mentioned is that it does not have an Arcade Mode.

"No, Arcade will not come back," Game Director Alexandre Letendre said. "Removing this mode from our plan was a difficult decision, but allowed us to focus our efforts on the main campaign, transporting players into the heart of a modern-day guerrilla revolution," the director added during the Reddit AMA. The team also confirmed that Hurk will not be in "Far Cry 6."

According to them, "in the context of Yara, we wanted to mainly spotlight characters from the region." Players could still enjoy the grappling hook and the wingsuit, making navigation in Yara fluid and fun. Ubisoft also revealed that "Far Cry 6" will feature a "wide range of Land, sea and air vehicles." This ranges from the "classic '50s Americal muscle cars to Resolver aircraft."
