Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon
Blood Dragon is a stand-alone expansion of Far Cry 3, meaning players do not need the original game to play it. Gameplay, though akin to Far Cry 3, using the same engine and general mechanics, is streamlined to provide a more linear experience. The skill tree, instead of a chosen path down three "ways of the animal", is replaced with a simpler leveling system that automatically unlocks benefits. The crafting is removed completely. The gameplay is open world, first-person shooter, with the same vehicles from Far Cry 3. Players will find themselves using high powered explosives, heavily modified firearms, and a large knife in order to kill their way through the main missions. Side missions involve liberating garrisons, killing rare animals, and saving hostages. Stealth is rewarded with extra Cyber Points, the equivalent of Experience Points. The game also includes lots of hidden collectibles which, when found, unlock helpful rewards to assist with play.

Simultaneously one of the most generic and unique games Ubisoft will likely ever put out. It's brevity is one of its strong points, not overstaying it's welcome like most of Ubisoft's games usually do. The soundtrack is fantastic, visuals hold up well and the weapons feel powerful. There is the annoyance of the having to wait for the game to check for online services which are no longer supported, here is a link to a patched .dll file to fix this issue.

One of the best standalone expansions I've ever played, heavily inspired by 80s action movies, with a great sense of humor and fun gameplay. This game comes from a long forgotten time when publishers and developers were not afraid to experiment and innovate. Unfortunately, we'll probably never see a proper sequel, because we don't deserve it. Strongly recommended if you have a craving for cheesy one-liners and over-the-top 80s action.
Pros:
- Great art design and visuals;
- Awesome soundtrack;
- Cool arsenal;
- Hilarious writing;
- Responsive controls;
- Fun gunplay;
- Great voice acting;
- Good optimisation;
- Neon-drenched post-apocalyptic atmosphere;
- Great sound design;
Cons:
- Ubisoft Connect(Upaly) is complete garbage;
- Some bugs;
- A little too short;

Played this one to 100% on the xbox
the most fun ever, its Far Cry peak similar to Far Cry 3, after this the franchise went down.
Goes often on sale, can only recommend to grab it with FC3 and enjoy some real good games

Ubisoft hasn't made a better Far Cry game than this. Prove me wrong.
The atmosphere, the story, the awesome soundtrack by Power Glove. It's all a love letter to cheesy 80's sci-fi action movies and I love it. Still an absolute banger in 2024

What a great game! Some gameplay aspects are a tad on the dated side, but between the exciting combat and stealth of Far Cry and the excellent vibe of an 80's cyber world, comes an incredible experience! I tend to find myself skipping most of the side content (collectables) in Far Cry games, but why would I pass up on an excuse to listen to this awesome soundtrack.
Seriously, buy this game!
