You have to respect what studio Ubisoft Montreal has accomplished in Far Cry Primal, devising a first-person shooter that feels at home in the Stone Age. (Arrows are your weapon here.) Last year’s Far Cry 4 did it with ultralights and wingsuits; Primal manages with crazier wildlife and tighter crafting ties to the setting.
Yes, Far Cry with dinosaurs might have been incredible. But having a Bloodfang Sabretooth for a chaperone? As you’ll see in the video above, that’s still pretty dang cool.
