Far Cry New Dawn

Far Cry New Dawn is the continuation of the popular first-person shooter series, which, unlike previous games, will take you into a post-apocalyptic world – Hope County, Montana, 17 years after a nuclear catastrophe. In the game's world, you will encounter battles with mutants and armed raiders looking to seize the remaining resources in the world. There is also a cooperative mode, single-player mode, new weapons, and tameable animals, including a Shiba Inu dog and a wild boar. In addition, you will be able to build and develop your own base.

Far Cry New Dawn is a post-apocalyptic spin-off in the Far Cry series and a narrative continuation of Far Cry 5. The gameplay has become even more fun and carefree than in the main games of the series, with small RPG elements added, while vehicles, world exploration, and weapon upgrades remain.

Among the main changes – enemies now have ranks; the higher the rank, the more powerful, "thicker," and better-armed they are. The player will also earn ranks and create weapons to match their level. The base is not only a place for rest and resource storage but also an operational center where allied NPCs live, attacks are planned, and upgrades to weapons and vehicles are installed.

There are many more parkour elements, as if the character is 2.5 meters tall. He jumps further, drops without much health damage, and can climb any ledge or roof, as there are many platforms under each one that the protagonist climbs with unprecedented ease.

Some common shooter mechanics – stealth kills, weapon appearance, and NPCs, as well as unusual weapons, have been reworked to fit the harsh post-apocalyptic conditions. Otherwise, New Dawn is a typical Ubisoft shooter with plenty of shootouts and explosions, rides on makeshift cars, hunting, completing side quests, and other various crazy things.

New Dawn borrowed the map from Far Cry 5, which has been significantly reworked for the new conditions, but it is somewhat smaller than the main game. New areas have opened up to players, while some old ones are inaccessible. There is much more nature in the game and fewer human structures, most of which were destroyed by nuclear strikes on Hope County.

Mutations due to radiation have led to the predominance of pink in the vegetation and animals, and overall a brighter color palette, similar to Watch Dogs 2. Some animals have remained in their original form, while others have adapted to the new conditions, gaining dangerous defense mechanisms.

The scant heritage from higher civilization now stands rusty and rotten, and the surviving natives use any trash for construction. Characters and other NPCs look like typical ragged survivors after a nuclear apocalypse, although they somehow manage to find makeup and a hair straightener.

As for factions, there will be three – lone survivors, including the hero himself, reckless daredevils and raiders from the Highwaymen gang, and "Eden" – Joseph Seed's group from the fifth part that survived in the north.

The story of New Dawn follows the presentation of Far Cry 5: in-engine cutscenes, radio briefings, and small dialogues. Игра является экспериментальной для Ubisoft, поэтому в роли главных антагонистов — чернокожие сестры-альбиносы Микки и Лу. Их принцип: «сила — это новая валюта», они грабят выживших, забирают у них ресурсы (самый ценный из них — этанол), а также убивают их ради забавы.

Чтобы восстановить порядок, герою или героине (в начале новой игры можно создать своего персонажа со стертыми гендерными стереотипами) предстоит заручиться поддержкой Эдемцев и войти в доверие к постаревшему Иосифу Сиду!

Помимо него выжили и другие персонажи пятой части, при желании их можно будет отыскать и посмотреть, как они пережили апокалипсис и изменились за 17 лет. В New Dawn, как в Far Cry 4, рейдеры свободно ездят по вашей территории, устраивают диверсии, а также пытаются отбить потерянные куски земли. Война за территорию и ресурсы стала лейтмотивом сюжета.
