Far Cry 4’s Season Pass Revealed

While the idea of pre-planned premium DLC is a debate that many have been having for some time now, Ubisoft can definitely see the value in promised updates and have sent us details of their season pass for the upcoming Far Cry 4.

The Season Pass extends players’ time in Kyrat and includes new missions that can be completed in either single-player or co-op. Content includes a Season Pass exclusive day-one mission, a prison break co-op mission, wild missions with Hurk and his harpoon gun, a new PvP mode that will have friends teaming up to fight opposing forces and a chance to encounter the rarest beast in the Himalayas – yetis.

The Far Cry 4 Season Pass contains:

  • The Syringe – Available from launch exclusively for Season Pass holders, players must keep a rare and potent recipe from falling into the hands of Pagan Min’s forces. Playable in single-player and co-op, players will need to ensure that he does not use its devastating effects on the rebel forces.
  • Escape from Durgesh Prison – Ajay and Hurk have been rounded up and tortured in Yuma’s prison. Team up with a friend to escape and survive the hostile lands of Pagan Min’s Kyrat.
  • Hurk Deluxe Pack – Five missions, playable in single-player and co-op, including Yak Farm, Blood Ruby and Hurk’s Redemption are available. Access an arsenal of new weapons including a harpoon gun for Hurk.
  • Overrun – Team up as Rakshasa or Golden Path in this PvP mode and control a series of neutral locations across Kyrat’s countryside to protect them from being overrun by your opponents.
  • Valley of the Yetis – Ajay’s helicopter has crashed on an unforgiving Himalayan ridge. Explore the frozen landscape and find tools to upgrade your camp and protect it from a dangerous cult when night falls. With single-player and co-op options, players will not be alone, but in the darkest caves players will have more to fear than just the cult as the yetis await their prey…

Priced at £23.99, the Season Pass will be available at the launch of Far Cry 4 on November 18. Once purchased, the Season Pass enables the download of all included Far Cry 4 add-on content packs once they become available. Additionally, players who pre-order Far Cry 4 Gold Edition, which includes both the game and the Season Pass, will benefit from a discount over buying them separately.

  1. I’m hesitant about Far Cry 4 only because I’ve already played the first 3 and am kinda tuckered out on the franchise. So obviously I’m doubly hesitant about a season pass, just how much more of “I’ve seen this all before” am I expected to take? Cost of both together on the PS4 is around £68. For a videogame. I’m sure Ubisoft can see the value, unfortunately I’m not that die-hard of a fan of the series anymore.

    They might be able to sucker me in with The Division though because that’s new and shiny, but then I got slightly bitten with the same sort of thing with Destiny which was also new and shiny but unfortunately a bit short-lived for me.

    I’m a big proponent of going back to the time when we paid £39.99 for a full game and if it sold well the developer might push out an sequel or two, but back then if a game sold well it was usually because it didn’t need an expansion, it was all there.
