Far Cry 3/Blood Dragon Classic Editions, Far Cry Primal Getting 60 FPS Update This Week

Game Informer News

Last year, Ubisoft released a 60 FPS update for Far Cry 4 on current consoles, and now it’s applying the same magic to three earlier entries. Far Cry 3: Classic Edition, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon Classic Edition, and Far Cry Primal will receive the same update this week.

The news was first announced via a cryptic X post featuring three math equations using emojis to spell out the games and the 60 FPS update. These updates will be available this Wednesday, January 21, and apply when playing the games on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Individual trailers showcase the improved framerates (at least for Far Cry 3 and Blood Dragon), which, keep in mind, is the primary upgrade; don’t expect any graphical enhancements. Still, it’s nice to have smoother-running versions of these games on current platforms. 

 

To reiterate, the update applies to the Classic Editions of Far Cry 3 and Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, which are remastered ports released for PS4 and Xbox One in 2018 and 2021, respectively. Far Cry Primal, meanwhile, is a native last-gen title released in 2016.
