Far Cry: New Dawn is a good spin-off for Far Cry 5, but doesn't completely match the value of the parent game. If you enjoyed FC5 and want more, this is a good more. Otherwise, play FC5 first.

Far Cry New Dawn delivers a natural evolution in gameplay from Far Cry 5, delivering constant action and entertaining gameplay - if not a memorable storyline.

A very conservative bet that repeats without fear of imitation, an argument that lacks quality at all levels, a county that has changed almost nothing, a technological component that has left to be desired

Far Cry New Dawn offers a leaner take on Ubisoft's open world, but doesn't take many risks.

A direct-to-video style sequel to Far Cry 5 that's still perfectly playable but fails to make use of its own premise in any interesting way.
