Vaas, the antagonist from Far Cry 3, is back very soon. The newly released Far Cry 6 will receive its first DLC next week, and the game’s first DLC will bring Vaas back. The add-on is called Vaas: Insanity and will be available from November 16, 2021 for players on Xbox, PlayStation, PC and Stadia. For the first time in Far Cry history, players will be able to take control of Vaas, and the madness doesn’t end there, because the antagonists from Far Cry 4 and Far Cry 5 will also be returning soon, in 2022.
Ubisoft said in a press statement, “Starting with nothing more than a defensive pistol, players will need to find new weapons and unlock power-ups to become stronger and delve deeper into the depths of Vaas’ psyche,”they continue. added, “Combining intense action and storytelling, Vaas: Insanity offers a unique opportunity to better understand Vaas’ past, his personal demons, and his motives.”
Far Cry 6 is the latest game from the popular franchise.
As previously announced, the post-Far Cry 6 DLC will allow players to transform into infamous antagonists from past games, starting with Far Cry 3’s Vaas Montenegro. Far Cry 4’s Pagan Min and Far Cry 5’s Joseph Seed will also return.
Vaas: Madness will release next week, as Episode 1 and Episodes 2 and 3 titled Pagan: Control and Joseph: Collapse could arrive in January and March next year. The return of villains from the old Far Cry games is undoubtedly a colossal crossover that could also be another ploy by Ubisoft to draw players into the game. Previously , Far Cry 6 players seemingly logged out of the game received scathing emails from El Presidente, Anton Castillo himself. Now Ubisoft is trying to bring back the retro feel, which could be very successful with the introduction of Vaas as a playable character.
