Customer Ratings & Reviews

Nice open world game with great graphics. I think it was a little too easy of a game. A bit of doing the same thing through out the game. Got this game for $15 so felt it was only worth that much.

I have always liked Far Cry games and have been playing them since 2 on the PS3. But out of all of them, I would say that New Dawn is something special. It takes almost everything that made 5 great and improves upon it. The only aspects that are weaker in New Dawn compared to 5 is the story and size/scope (but that's necessarily a bad thing). First off, the weapon creation system, while not mind blowing, is a nice throwback to 2 where your weapons would malfunction without the frustration. In the beginning of New Dawn when you pick up a random weapon off of a dead guy it doesn't work that well. It's slower to reload and shoot because your character is fighting dirty mechanisms and rusted parts. As you get better gear it works much better (although it's usually not much prettier). This is a really nice system that adds to the experience. I also liked the addition of the damage numbers showing when you hit your target. This might annoy some but I really like it. Character models, visuals, environments, and sounds are all improved compared to 5. I know it's got to be running on the same engine so I have no idea how they made it look better, but they did. Also the HDR color on this game is fantastic. The bright magenta flowers that are everywhere really pop on my 65 inch TV. HDR makes the sunsets and sunrises in this game quite beautiful too. Speaking of visuals, the setting of New Dawn is very interesting. It's obviously post-apocalyptic with strong Mad Max vibes with the driving, Highwaymen, gas wars, bullet farms and hodgepodge style weapons. It also has moments that it reminded me of The Last of Us and Dying Light (although there are no human zombies in this game) while exploring the overgrown buildings for resources and using the new running/jumping mechanics respectively. These are all media that I love so I will say I enjoyed the mashed-up feel. YMMV, of course. Like I said in the beginning of my review, the only weak point compared to 5 is the story. 5's story was frustrating at points but it really sucked me in and made me feel like I was living it. New Dawn's, however, relies a little too heavily on the supernatural. But, I will say I like the conclusion better than 5's. And the shorter story made it so I got through the game without getting burned out, which I liked. Not every game needs to be a triple-digit-hour slog. This is especially fine since the asking price of the game is considerably lower than most AAA games. It's also a pretty easy and fun Platinum if you are a trophy hunter. To summarize, if you like Far Cry games, you should give this one a go. I doubt you will be disappointed. And, as a surprise to no one, if you don't like Far Cry games you won't like this one. New Dawn is unmistakably a Far Cry game but somehow manages to feel nostalgic and fresh at the same time, and that's an achievement worth celebrating.

I was introduced to the Farcry franchise by my oldest son and New Dawn is by far my favorite. I love the storyline( while not 100% original) it's the gameplay, missions, weapons and challenges that have me hooked. New Dawn is my go to game right now.

A good spin-off to Far Cry 5 with excellent graphics and accessible gameplay. The open world is not as large as the one in Far Cry 5, and the villains are less compelling, but game is still fun.

is a good game. Entertaining like all far cry. The story of Far cary 5 continues in New Dawn, so if you haven't played Fsr Cry 5 I recommend you play it.

My one complaint is that the game is too short. But what you do get is bonkers and extremely action packed. I like this zany direction for the series.

It was really great. I loved the new guns, the characters, and i find that the other characters from FC5 being old and having children and disabilities is really cool cause it puts it into life perspection and the well loved characters like Hurk Drubman Jr. have a family of their own and have silver hairs. I give the game itself and FC5 a sold gold 10/10. Sharky is still halairious and so is Hurk. This game has much comedy, action, and free play.

If you loved Far Cry 5, this will please you just as much. Superb detailed graphics, great gameplay with varied missions, good story, what more could you ask for?

Essentially Far Cry 5 with some tacky RPG mechanics. You will still have fun but there's not much new if you have already played FC5

fun game almost as good as 6 not as easy as primal just the LSD flashbacks are a pain

Very great game! I've been having fun since I finally got it yesterday from Best Buy's very slow shipping service and then getting it on the day after estimated delivery. That's the only issue I have is because of slow shipping. Other then that, I love the game, love the graphics and the side story of the aftermath with the nuclear explosion. Crafting is fun as well, I've always loved playing stealthy. To the people saying this wasn't good, aren't fans of the series and maybe was expecting too much of a expansion. Overall, 5/5 from me.

A continuation to the Far Cry story. It was pretty decent. Decent story, decent price.

I liked this better than far cry 5, I hated that one. I love the story in this game. Wasn’t disappointed, love open world.

This game is very fun and has amazing graphics. If you like far cry you will like this.

This game is very good, the graphic section is very beautiful. The action makes you jump right into the game

recommended this game, the well-set story and the excellent gameplay.

Awsome story to start graphics are wonderful . All in all this game is a great addation to the franchise

If you've played Far Cry 5 then you were probably left wondering what exactly happened after the end credits. Well, New Dawn attempts to pick up the story 17 years after the original game's ending. I'll say that after playing through the original game, I didn't expect the route the developers took with the sequel. Without giving away spoilers, this game left me a bit disappointed. I really can't say why without spoiling the story so I'll just leave it at that. Gameplay is entertaining and much like the FC5 so if you liked that, you'll be satisfied with this. The NPC's are amusing and will have you laughing with their off-the-wall one liners and snarky comments. The problem lies with the length of the game and the amount of content available. The main missions are short and could have been fleshed out. Then again, this game is only 40 dollars so I should have expected a shorter campaign.

Good game, great graphics and a lot of action a must play.
