Far Cry 5 initially came out in 2018 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. In our Far Cry 5 review, we gave it an 8.9, with Daemon Hatfield stating, "Far Cry 5 is another wide-open playground with all the necessary ingredients for causing a real ruckus: loads of enemies and allies, temperamental wildlife, and plenty of explosions."
