Far Cry 6 launches on October 7th, 2021, and it's the first mainline Far Cry game released since Far Cry 5 in 2018 and the first Far Cry game released since the spinoff Far Cry New Dawn released in 2019. Originally, the game was scheduled for release in early 2021, but due to the Coronavirus pandemic, the game was pushed back to October 7th, 2021.

After release, Far Cry 6 is set to get a host of post-launch content. In this article, we'll explain what's coming to Far Cry 6 after the game launches and what you can expect to arrive with the game's season pass, which is included with a number of the game's editions.

The Standard Edition of Far Cry 6 is the only edition of the game that doesn't come with the game's season pass. The Gold Edition, Ultimate Edition, and Collector's Editions all are bundled with the game's season pass. Currently, the game's season pass is not being sold separately, but it inevitably will be once the game launches, and it will retail for $40 on its own.

The season pass includes three pieces of post-game story expansion DLC, each which will let gamers play as a famous villain from the past Far Cry games. The packs are as follows: Vaas: Insanity, Pagan: Control, and Joseph: Collapse.

In addition to these larger packs, the season pass will also include the full game Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon, which was released in 2013. If you're on PC or Stadia, you'll get the original 2013 game, and if you're on console, you'll get Far Cry Blood Dragon: Classic Edition.

On top of the season pass, free DLC is coming to Far Cry 6 for all players who purchased the game. Headlining this free content is a series of tie-in crossover missions that will feature Rambo, Stranger Things, and the actor Danny Trejo. These missions will be playable solo as well in co-op.

Also, weekly missions called Insurgency Missions will be added to the game, and special events called Operations will also come to the game. Insurgency Missions will involve tracking down NPCs to get access to new gear, and the Operations will take players to new locales and introduce new gameplay mechanics. The first two Operations will be available at launch, bringing players to Mesozoico and Maceo. The rest will come later.

Far Cry 6 is developed by Ubisoft Toronto and takes place on the fictional Caribbean island of Yara ruled by dictator Antón Castillo, portrayed by Breaking Bad's Giancarlo Esposito. The player will take the role of a local Yaran named Dani Rojas as he fights for the freedom of his country, intending to restore the nation to its former glory.
