Molte novità in arrivo.
Sono passati quasi due mesi dall’uscita di Far Cry Primal, nuovo capitolo della saga targata Ubisoft. Oggi 13 Aprile è uscita la nuova patch 1.03, che oltre a numerosi miglioramenti introduce anche l’attesa Survival Mode.
“La chiave di volta di questa modalità è il cambiamento nell’esplorazione, nel crafting e nella difficoltà del gioco, per renderlo più realistico” ha dichiarato Thomas Simon, game director del titolo. Non ci resta che provarla e vedere se porterà effettivamente qualche ora in più di divertente e impegnativo gameplay oltre a svariati miglioramenti.
