Ubisoft has released a long-awaited 60FPS update for Far Cry New Dawn, enhancing the game’s performance on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. This unexpected update arrives six years after the game’s initial release, offering a smoother and more immersive experience for players revisiting the post-apocalyptic open world.

The news surfaced in an unconventional manner when Ubisoft support unexpectedly mentioned the update in response to a player inquiry. This led to widespread excitement among fans, especially those who had been hoping for performance improvements on next-gen consoles. The update ensures that Far Cry New Dawn now runs at a higher frame rate, delivering a more fluid and responsive gameplay experience.

In addition to the 60FPS patch, Far Cry New Dawn is also set to join Xbox Game Pass, making it more accessible to a broader audience. The timing of these announcements has sparked speculation about Ubisoft’s broader plans for the Far Cry franchise, as fans eagerly await news about upcoming entries or potential remasters.

The update aligns with a growing trend of developers optimizing older titles for modern hardware, allowing players to experience past games with improved performance. While Ubisoft has not detailed any additional graphical enhancements, the 60FPS patch alone significantly boosts the game’s playability on newer consoles.

With Far Cry New Dawn receiving this upgrade and its arrival on Xbox Game Pass, the game is poised for a resurgence among both returning and new players. Whether this signals more updates for older Far Cry titles remains to be seen, but for now, fans can enjoy a much smoother adventure in Hope County.
