As promised with yesterday’s tease, Ubisoft has released Far Cry 5 update 1.18, and this adds native 60 frames-per-second support for the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions! Read on for the trailer and Far Cry 5 March 16 patch notes.

Far Cry 5 Update 1.18 Patch Notes | Far Cry 5 March 16 Patch Notes:

According to the press release sent out by Ubisoft, native 60fps for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S applies to solo campaign, co-op, arcade and all downloadable content (DLC).

Under siege and cut off from the rest of the world in rural Hope County, Montana, by a fanatical doomsday cult, players will need to join forces with residents to create a resistance and liberate the community and themself. Players will have to take to the skies in dogfights against cultists across Big Sky Country; destroy cult supplies with vehicles, explosives, and more; and recruit Guns for Hire from a large cast of characters, or even Fangs for Hire, specialized animals like bears and cougars to complement players’ playstyles whether they’re going in stealthily or forcefully. How players approach each situation and the chaos they create in Far Cry 5 is up to them.

In addition to that, there is a free weekend for Far Cry 5 kicking off from March 23 to March 27 on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5 and PC (Epic Game Store, and Ubisoft Store). 

If there are any gameplay-related changes included, we’ll update the article, but we’re not expecting any outside of the framerate boost.
