Far Cry 4 joins a growing list of PS4-era Ubisoft games that have received performance upgrades in recent years, including Assassin's Creed Syndicate and Assassin's Creed Origins. This development has sparked excitement among fans on the subreddit, who are eagerly anticipating similar enhancements for other beloved titles such as Far Cry Primal and Far Cry 3. However, the timing of the update left some players feeling unfortunate, with one expressing disappointment just days after achieving the platinum trophy: "You are kidding right. I just platinumed the game, like, three days ago," they lamented.

In related news, Ubisoft recently established a subsidiary focused on its Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six franchises, backed by a €1.16 billion (approximately $1.25 billion) investment from Tencent. This move follows the announcement that Assassin's Creed Shadows surpassed 3 million players, a critical success amidst a backdrop of high-profile flops, layoffs, studio closures, and game cancellations that have put pressure on Ubisoft to deliver. The company's share price reached an all-time low, heightening the stakes for future releases. Additionally, Ubisoft quietly introduced Steam Achievements to the 12-year-old Splinter Cell: Blacklist, further enhancing its legacy titles.
