Today, Ubisoft has revealed Beast Master, a new feature empowering players to tame predators they find in the open world and use them as weapons. From wolves to sabretooth tigers to cave bears, and yes, even the honey badger, players will be able to summon these animals at any moment and use them as they prefer, from taking down their enemy, scouting the area, or acting as a distraction during battle and hunts. With those animals at his side, the player will have many opportunities to fight and try defeating his enemies to take back control over all Oros.
The latest installment of the critically acclaimed Far Cry® franchise will hit stores on February 23rd, 2016 on PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system and Xbox One, games and entertainment system from Microsoft. The game will release on March 1st on Windows PC.
