Far Cry 3 60FPS update officially announced

Ubisoft has been one of the better publishers when it comes to updating their back-catalogue of games for current-gen hardware, with multiple Assassin’s Creed titles; Far Cry entries and most recently The Division 1 all getting 60fps patches on PS5 and Series X|S. Following a variety of teasers over the past few weeks, the team at Ubisoft have now confirmed that Far Cry 3 is getting a 60fps patch on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

Officially arriving in just a few days on the 21st of January, Far Cry 3 Classic Edition is set to receive a free 60fps update on current-gen consoles.

While certainly a welcome addition, it appears as though the update is not making any other changes to the game, meaning it remains at the PS4 Pro / Xbox One X resolution of 1440p with TAA – and will not allow you to alter your player field-of-view.

Regardless, having a 60fps update is welcome nonetheless and will allow those on consoles to experience (or re-experience) this classic in a slightly improved form. 

In case you missed it, Ubisoft also recently teased that both Far Cry 3’s standalone DLC ‘Blood Dragon’ and the spin-off ‘Primal’ will also receive 60fps updates. We likely won’t have to wait long for those to also be officially confirmed.
