PlayStation 5 players can now experience Far Cry 4 at 60 FPS

While Far Cry 3 garnered significant attention by incorporating a formidable antagonist and engaging gunplay, Ubisoft effectively positioned Far Cry 4 as a notable successor.

Set against the fictional Himalayan location of Kyrat and featuring one of the most memorable villains in video gaming history, Pagan Min, the title played a pivotal role in the series' evolution.

More than 10 years following its initial release, FC4 received an update (version 1.08) for the PS5 on April 29, 2025. It is available for download on the console, allowing players to experience the game at 60 FPS. It is worth mentioning that this feature was previously available on the Xbox Series X/S consoles.

A user on Reddit, r/farcry, initially shared information about the update, with the description:

"Supports 60fps on PS5 consoles."

This has garnered the attention of fans who are now urging Ubisoft to extend this feature to titles such as Far Cry 3, Primal, Watch Dogs, Watch Dogs 2, and some older Assassin's Creed games.

In recent years, the company has released 60 FPS updates for various titles, including For Honor, AC Odyssey, AC Origins, AC Syndicate, and The Crew 2.
