I’ve been praying for a proper Far Cry VR game for ages, whether it be a new one or a port of the older games and now, all of a sudden, we’re getting loads of Far Cry VR mods thanks to the continued work of the flat to VR modding community!
A couple of months ago I showcased Cabalistic’s excellent VR mod for the original Far Cry from 2004 and this has since been updated even further to add full motion controls. And now, thanks once again to Luke Ross whose work I’ve featured on VR Corner many times, I’ve been able to take a trip to the beautiful islands of Yara to check out his R.E.A.L. VR mod for Far Cry 6 in all of its glory!
In the video above, you can watch me play through a couple of open world missions on the tutorial island of Isla Santuario using one of the first iterations of Luke’s R.E.A.L. VR mod for the game. For me, inside the headset, the experience was breathtaking. As a Far Cry fan and someone who loved the look of Yara (despite the uninspired gameplay that it contained), getting to feel like I was actually visiting the places that I’d previously only seen on a flat screen was a real thrill but, as you’ll see in the video, Luke’s mod isn’t without its issues.
