Taking place on the fictional Rook Islands, the game follows protagonist Jason Brody who must save his friends after they are kidnapped by pirates during a vacation gone awry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">Far Cry 3 is often pointed to as one of the earlier Ubisoft games that would define the company\u2019s output moving forward, along with titles such as Assassin\u2019s Creed II and Watch Dogs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">This is due to the fact that many fans have pointed out Far Cry 3 has been the formula for all of its sequels, with Ubisoft trying to recapture the magic of what made that game so successful.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">Even to this day, the older games in the series have been getting some attention from Ubisoft lately, with <a class=\"anchor_link__6t7IO\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gamingbible.com\/news\/far-cry-3-blood-dragon-primal-60fps-update-419853-20260118\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">60fps and performance improvements coming<\/a> to Far Cry 3: Classic Edition, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, and Far Cry Primal earlier this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A new Far Cry 3 project aims to restore a load of cut content that was removed from&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":839063,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[64,63,375654,24552,105,66834],"class_list":["post-839062","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-far-cry","tag-mods","tag-technology","tag-ubisoft"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/839062","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=839062"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/839062\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/839063"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=839062"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=839062"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=839062"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
