This game has the best open world that Ubisoft has ever made.
The story is great my only gripe is the "hunting party" that helps the story move forward.
Multiplayer is great especially the ability to co-op the entire story.

I really love this game. So much to explore and do but still enough variety to stay fresh. Fairly big open world and gameplay is pretty easy. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a FPS that has a decent leveling system.

To me Far Cry has been the gold standard of FPS open world action games, and this is no different. Super fun and addicting, amazing graphics, and a great story. If you have enjoyed Far Cry games, buy this now

This game is SO cool! The story, the graphics, the only thing I don’t like is that it’s first person. Makes me seasick sometimes.

I’ve never played a Far Cry game prior to FC5, but I found the game to be quite enjoyable. Love the open-world Montana vibe, gameplay and visuals are hard to match.

Same great playground of chaos the Far Cry series is known for. This game looks stunning in the Xbox One X and plays just as smooth. True to the series as well is the story, as dark as it is humorous.

I think this is a great game. The action in the game keeps you in it. But the main thing that I enjoyed about the game is Cheeseburger you're buddy bear that help you complete the missions. If you can get this on sale then get it!

FarCry 5 is my first exposure to the FarCry series. So I can't speak about how it compares to the other FarCry games for the Xbox. FarCry 5 is a story of a lone deputy standing up to a loony religious apocalypse cult that has taken over a large chunk of Montana. This being Montana, it seems that the whole non-cult population was just waiting for someone to rise up so they could dust off their automatic weapons and join the fray...other than the average folks who are hanged, burned, drowned, shot, or converted by the cult. FarCry 5 is a first person shooter that is also a driving/racing game and an RPG of sorts and also a fishing simulator. The dramatic sequences in the game are dramatic, indeed. And it's interesting to see how the foreign (well, Canadian) writers and programmers view both Montana and America.

Story is amazing. Far cry 4 story was seriously lacking in my opinion. But this games story is awesome! The graphics are great. I’ve already beat this game several times, it’s that good.

Love every bit of playing this game. Ending could've been a bit different but all around it was a great game. Should be available at a good price right now.

It's an ubisoft game so there is a lot of content, too much content. A lot of optional stuff to consume your time. This can be a good or bad thing.
Compared to previous far cry games, this one has the best controls and graphics. I wasn't thrilled about the Montana setting but I enjoy it when I play. It feels like a nice getaway when you can stop and admire the forests, animal life and going fishing. But it is a far cry game so a lot of people and animals will try to kill you.
If you like far cry and know how it plays, you will love this. Only people I cant reccomend this to are people who want a linear story experience. A lot to do in this game and a bit of a grind but that is ubisoft standard and I think it is enjoyable here.

Really into this game, well worth the money for how big the map is and the storyline of this game. Putting this one in the vault for my kid for when he’s older.
