Unsurprisingly, Far Cry 4 will come bearing its own Season Pass promotion, offering gun-bearing travellers a chance at a discount on several pieces of planned downloadable content. Ubisoft officially announced the deal today, and gave us more insight into exactly what we’ll get if we pay the thirty-dollar asking price.
For the most part, the pass’ included add-ons look to either expand upon the game’s storyline or accentuate it with colourful side missions. That said, there is one player-versus-player mode to note. It, unlike the others, seems to be an exotic spin on a control point game type.
Here’s a detailed list, thanks to Far Cry 4‘s latest presser:
The Syringe – Available launch day 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. On your own or with a friend, escape and survive the hostile lands of Pagan Min’s Kyrat.
Hurk Deluxe Pack – Five missions, including Yak Farm, Blood Ruby and the Hurk’s Redemption missions are available, along with an arsenal of new weapons including “The Impaler” Hurk’s harpoon gun.
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 the cult as the yetis await their prey…
Although our wallets will likely disagree, there’s a decent amount of interesting content promised through the above list. Valley of the Yetis sounds particularly interesting, and could be a home run if handled well, so that’s the one I’m most looking forward to.
Far Cry 4 will anger tigers and elephants on November 18.
