Ubisoft has finally given a first look at the highly anticipatedFar Cry 6: Lost Between Worldsexpansion along with its release date and price point. It looks likeLost Between Worldswill continueFar Cry’strend of being more experimental, with Dani Rojas' new sci-fi adventure being a sharp departure from the grounded tone and story ofFar Cry 6. The last batch of DLC fromFar Cry 6featuring the series previous villains drew a lot of mixed opinions, so hopefullyLost Between Worldscan correct the course for players.
Lost Between Worldshas been teased extensivelyby Ubisoft over the last week on social media as the next chapter in Dani Rojas' story. Initially, players were concerned that the expansion would only be available as part of the very expensiveFar Cry 6: Game of the Year Editionat $199.99 due to a leak that was posted to the Xbox Database in September. Fear not though, as many have predicted, players will be able to pick upLost Between Worldson its own and at a very reasonable price.

Far Cry 6: Lost Between Worldswill release on December 6 on Consoles and PC and will start at $19.99. The trailer sees Dani traverse a broken and distorted Yara through dimensional rifts, each of which has its own rules and laws of physics. It looks like Dani will be getting some help along the way from an extraterrestrial companion that looks and sounds a lotlike The Ghosts fromDestiny.
Each of the dimensional rifts contains crystal-like enemies which seem to be tied to the elements, Dani’s weapon changes color depending on which enemy type she’s facing, so this could be a core gameplay mechanic. Ubisoft has teased that the new expansion willexpand theFar Cry 6lorewhile introducing new enemies and gameplay challenges along with “life or death trials.”
It’s a pleasant surprise that players will be able to jump intoLost Between Worldsin a matter of days. There’ll also be a sigh of relief that the expansion can be bought on its own without having to pay for the extortionateGame of the Year Edition. If Ubisoft had made that decision, as was previously thought, it would have gone down as perhaps one of the worst moves from a developer in recent years. There’s little word if this new expansion is completely stand-alone but the sci-fi influence in this expansion could very well be hinting at whereUbisoft plans to take the franchise next.
Far Cry 6: Lost Between Worldsreleases December 6 on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
