Far Cry Game Series

Far Cry is a series of first-person shooters (FPS) with a sandbox gameplay model. The leading theme of the series is spectacular shootouts using modern firearms, but the developers are not afraid to experiment and from time to time serve players a trip to completely different realities, such as distant prehistory (where rifles and flamethrowers are replaced by bows and machetes) or an alternative world in the climate of cyberpunk (where cyborg soldiers fight using laser weapons). The series allows us to drive vehicles, including jeeps or boats with machine guns, and sometimes to ride animals (such as elephants). Starting with the third installment, RPG-like elements, such as crafting and character skill development, began to enter the series. Later installments were also equipped with level editors.

Far Cry 4: Valley of the Yetis is the first story DLC released for the fourth installment of the best-selling FPS series Far Cry. The game takes place in Himalayas, in the titular Yeti Valley, where a helicopter with our hero crashes. In this cold and inhospitable land, Ajay Ghale, known from the base game, will have to face new enemies, spearheaded by the brutal local cultists and mighty Yetis. That, however, is only the beginning of a darker story. It soon turns out that the real evil awaits our hero in the heart of the mysterious valley. The expansion, available for the season owners or separately, gives the players additional couple of hours of gameplay in the Far Cry 4 universe. Valley of the Yetis can be played alone or in co-op, where our protagonist is accompanied by Hurk, a character known from the base game.
