More On: Far Cry 6

Far Cry 6 is hosting a free weekend and it marks a great chance to check out Ubisoft's latest open world. This is a game that received a commendable 8.5 review score from GamingNexus' Eric Hauter who told writers that "There is a mountain of fun to be had here". So, weekend plans sorted then?

As per Ubisoft's statement, new players can pre-load Far Cry 6 on March 22 at 12 PM PT on PC and PlayStation platforms, and will have access to the full game when the free weekend begins, including the upcoming Stranger Things crossover mission inspired by the Netflix series, and all free downloadable content published to date – all playable in co-op.

The Vanishing, a new free Stranger Things crossover mission, will be available March 24 for all Far Cry 6 players. The Vanishing will bring a stealth-horror-survival gameplay experience to Far Cry players for the first time with mysterious characters and new lore. In The Vanishing, players will enter a twisted version of Yara inspired by the Upside-Down, where Dani discovers that Yarans are disappearing and no one is safe – not even Chorizo. Players will be able to explore Stranger Things-inspired locations, such as a hidden bunker and an abandoned laboratory. Dani’s mission – with new skins for a flamethrower and shotgun – is to search for Chorizo and find out what happened to the abducted Yarans.
