Far Cry 4’s first piece of DLC ‘Escape from Durgesh Prison’ will launch on PC and Xbox Live on January 13, and on PSN on January 14, Ubisoft has announced.
Escape from Durgesh Prison is described as a “challenging time trial” that sees Ajay and Hurk attempting to escape capture, and features a single life mechanic that forces the player to restart the challenge from the beginning should they die.
“In Escape from Durgesh Prison, Ajay and Hurk wake up after being captured, tortured and stripped of their weapons in Yuma’s prison,” Ubisoft says. “Thrown in the dangerous world of Kyrat without anything to defend themselves, players will complete a series of challenges to find weapons and unlock new skills while trying to reach the extraction point to safety.
“Playable in single player and coop, this difficult mode will keep players running across Kyrat to complete side objectives dictated by Pagan Min to recover their lost weapons and upgrade their gear before a final stand-off with Yuma’s forces. To ramp up the challenge, when players die they must start the mission over again and use the knowledge and skills they gained during their previous run through to help them reach their extraction point successfully.”
The DLC will be available at no extra cost as part of the game’s Season Pass or $9.99 when bought individually. A UK price has yet to be confirmed.
Valley of the Yetis, a new single-player and co-op expansion that lets players upgrade their camp and protect it from a dangerous cult, has yet to be dated.
