In this video, I’m taking a deep dive into the original Far Cry (2004) — the one that started it all, created by Crytek and published by Ubisoft. From tropical merc shootouts to surprise mutant horror elements, we’re breaking down the gameplay, story, and legacy of this oddball first-person shooter that laid the groundwork for one of gaming’s most iconic franchises.
