Customization and Creation
4 Reasons Why Fans of Open World Games Should Be Excited for Far Cry 5
The Far Cry series has featured a map creator for most of the series, but it’s much more detailed this time around. The map editor allows players to create ‘custom combat zones,’ with the unique feature of being able to use assets from other Ubisoft games, including Far Cry 4, Far Cry Primal, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag, Assassin’s Creed Unity and Watch Dogs. You’ll be able to really get your creative (and destructive) juices flowing with some truly outrageous map designs. As the Vietnam, Space, and Zombie themed DLC packs drop, these assets will also be made available.
Also, after the disappointing decision to make map editing a solely co-op and single-player option in Far Cry 4, Ubisoft has decided to allow everything you create to be shared with others online. You can even make maps for the more traditional online modes, to make any PvP action more varied. Also, you can customize your character for the first time, changing their appearance, clothes, and loadout as you explore Montana.
