Ubisoft has delivered an unexpected gift to PS5 and Xbox Series players, announcing a Far Cry 4 update that enables native 60 FPS. To celebrate, the company is slashing prices on PlayStation and Xbox digital stores, as well as in the Ubisoft Store.

Ubisoft is continuing its push to modernize some of its best-known titles by enabling native 60 FPS on PS5 and Xbox Series consoles. This time, the studio surprised fans with a long-awaited patch for Far Cry 4. Players can now roam across the treacherous terrain of Kyrat with significantly smoother visuals and enhanced responsiveness.

“30 FPS? How cute! Now step closer… Far Cry 4 now runs at a silky smooth 60 FPS on current-gen consoles. Let the chaos seduce you.” That’s how Ubisoft broke the news via the official Far Cry account on X. What’s more, the timing aligns with the game’s arrival to Xbox Game Pass (Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass, Game Pass Standard) tomorrow, April 30. The developers have made sure that subscribers get access to the best version of the game from the get-go.

To clarify, Xbox Series X owners could previously enjoy 60 FPS gameplay thanks to the FPS Boost feature, which retroactively increases frame rates for select titles. However, with this new official patch, Ubisoft has now built 60 FPS support directly into the game’s core, making it available for PS5 players too. And to top it off, the company is offering time-limited discounts on Far Cry 4 across PlayStation and Xbox digital storefronts, as well as its own Ubisoft Store.

Ubisoft’s 60 FPS Initiative Expands

As mentioned earlier, Far Cry 4 is not the first Ubisoft game to receive the 60 FPS treatment on PS5 and Xbox Series. The French publisher has already applied this upgrade to titles like Far Cry: New Dawn and Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, signaling a broader initiative to bring modern performance standards to its older catalog. Naturally, fans are already clamoring for updates to Far Cry 3, the Watch Dogs series, and additional Assassin’s Creed entries.
