Desolate
Games Like Far Cry 5
Desolate is another game with a giant world about as welcoming as your prom date’s Father.
It’s more of a survival horror experience than anything in the Far Cry series but definitely captures the fish out of water feeling which accompanies it.
Set in the Soviet Union, the game drops a team of up to four players into its unforgiving and mystery-filled world. Crafting is a huge part of the game, where players can collect components and recipes to build weapons and armor.
From what we’ve seen so far, there’s definitely a corrupt overlord pulling the strings which, when combined with the first person action on show here, puts it well in-line with Far Cry in terms of themes and gameplay design.
It’s the lure of the unknown which will entice Far Cry players here, encouraging them deeper and deeper into the game’s brutal world.
