Stranger Things Coming to Far Cry 6
In two days, a new mission will hit Far Cry 6, featuring a crossover with the Stranger Things series. In it, we will visit an alternate version of Yara.
Do you remember how Far Cry 6 got content inspired by Rambo? As it turns out, Ubisoft did not stop at this crossover and soon another popular brand will appear in the title. This time it's Stranger Things, which in two days will appear in the game as part of a story mission.
Stranger Things in Far Cry 6 and a free weekend
Ubisoft reported that on March 24, the mission "The Vanishing" will appear, which will be a crossover with Stranger Things. The crossover event is expected to emphasize stealth. During the mission we will find ourselves in an alternative version of Yara, inspired by the "inverted world" known from the TV series. We'll visit such locations as, for example, abandoned laboratory. On our way we'll face Demogorgon, the main antagonist from the first season. There will also be some new gear.
Additionally, it was announced that along with the start of the event there will be a free weekend. Within it, everyone interested can play Far Cry 6 on PC, PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. The offer will last until March 27. At this point, however, it is not known whether also the mission from Stranger Things will be available only for a limited time.
