The much-anticipated Far Cry Primal leads the release of several games on Xbox One today, each bringing something different to the growing library of games on Microsoft’s console.
Far Cry Primal is the latest entry in the successful action survival game franchise. While most of its predecessors have been set in the present, Primal leaps back centuries to The Stone Age and lets the player control a caveman who must survive in a wild world without technology while fending off a variety of human and animal predators.
Here’s the official description:
The Far Cry franchise returns in the Stone Age, a time of danger and adventure, when humanity is struggling to survive. Conquer this innovative open world with breathtaking environments and unpredictable savage encounters. The rich setting of the Stone Age provides a new setting filled with unpredictable mayhem, dangerous threats, and incredible stories that Far Cry is known for. Play as Takkar, a seasoned hunter and the last surviving member of your group. There is one goal: survive in a world where you are the prey.
Far Cry Primal is available in both a regular and special “Apex” edition which comes with the regular game and all of its digital content such as the Legend of the Mammoth missions, the Blood Shasti Club weapon, four enhancement packs, and a variety of crafting and item packs.
