Far Cry 6

Its unique touches include Resolver weapons, improvised guns built from scrap, and Supremo backpacks that unleash special abilities when charged. Amigos are animal companions who fight alongside you, the best known being Guapo the crocodile.

One minute you are sabotaging a regime convoy, the next you are racing a horse through tobacco fields or cockfighting in a mini-game. Yara is divided into regions with their own guerrilla leaders, so the map keeps feeling fresh as you move across it.

That makes it a good choice for two friends on neighbouring stations at a cafe, taking on Yara together.

A big screen shows off the island. You need a Ubisoft account. Rated M.

Use the right ammo type for each enemy (armour-piercing, soft-target and so on). Recruit Amigos for support. Upgrade weapons at workbenches. Play with a friend for extra fun.

A two-hour session covers the opening and the first island.
