Though Far Cry: New Dawn treads similar ground as its predecessor, this direct sequel signals the franchises is stretching its wings by introducing RPG mechanics and easily replayable content. This is still a game packed with zany characters, bizarre moments, and fast-paced fun.

If you Haven't Played FarCry 5 yet, FarCry: New Dawn is the best place for you. even though the price tag seems a little bit odd, but this game is a great choice for FarCry Franchise Lovers and offers great graphics and enjoyable story that make it a nice choice for Those Who haven't Played FarCry 5 Yet

In my opinion that Ubisoft Montreal has made a lot of technical and visual progress in trying to get the difficult equation to become the spin-off better than the basic game, but still needs more to become a special version in the series.

Far Cry New Dawn brings the solid gameplay you’d expect from the franchise alongside some welcome gameplay tweaks and additions that undoubtedly make it the best Far Cry game in years

Everything considered, Far Cry New Dawn doesn't offer enough and didn't use the potential behind the setting. The story elements offer enough for Far Cry 5 fans to deliver a decent ending but in every other aspect the game goes off into the wrong directions with uninspiring additions to the Far Cry Mix.

For the full asking price, I certainly can't recommend Far Cry New Dawn, especially not with its weak narrative and uninspired take on the post-apocalypse.

A disappointing sequel which doesn't use the post-apocalyptic setting very well. It adds some new mechanics, but deep inside it's the same Far Cry 5 without any meaningful additions.

Far Cry: New Dawn is a quickly produced FC 5 with a new texture pack and some funky colors. Although the plot does not reach its potential, the game has some really creative missions, the graphics are beautiful, and the music is great. If only the cool shooting mechanic wasn't limited by the new "color system".

Surprisingly, Far Cry New Dawn is much more than just a spin-off, and it can be easily considered as one of the main and best titles in the Far Cry series.

Far Cry: New Dawn has nothing less than a main game in Far Cry series and it is a very complete game full of high quality content. Despite of some problems in story, i must say that amazing graphics, deep gameplay with new RPG elements and features, even more beautiful Hope County (than Far Cry 5) and many different activities to do, made Far Cry: New Dawn one of the best spin-offs that we've seen so far and either you play Far Cry 5 or not, you should definitely experience Far Cry: New Dawn, because it is absolutely worth your time and money.

Let's get this straight, Far Cry New Dawn is a reskin of Far Cry 5. It never claimed to be anything different. But in the process of trying to create its own identity, it accidentally stumbled onto something great. The new characters, as well as old ones, make this an experience that is worth going through. The new mechanics and systems are equally as engaging with special mention given to the wonderfully realised Expeditions. The microtransaction heavy resource system and the fact that it is still the same Hope County does hinder it a bit, but it doesn't stop it from being fun. If you like Far Cry 5, this game is for sure up your alley.

Although there's fun to be had in New Dawn, it feels a bit like a downgrade compared to Far Cry 5. An okay story, weak antagonists and mostly empty world are being held up by the franchise's usual standard for combat and graphics.

Far Cry New Dawn, doesn't feel different. Is this a good thing or something bad? Is it realy New Far Cry game or expansion pack for Far Cry 5?

Superficial shakeups leave New Dawn feeling familiar to a fault for longtime Far Cry fans, but the gunplay is still satisfying
