Chorizo is a paraplegic dachshund with a wheelchair that will be inFar Cry 6as a companion, and many fans have already fallen for him.It’s always big news when players can have and pet animals in video games, although it’s worth mentioning that this is far from the first animal companion to join the franchise.
There are entire Twitter accounts dedicated to whether players can pet animals in games, like playing with the cat inCyperpunk 2077or being able topet the chain chomp inPaper Mario: the Origami King. Far Cry 6takes it to a completely different level, though.

While some animals inFar Crygames have been trying to murder the main character, Chorizo the handicapped dog seems like he’ll be along to help out, seen in4k inFar Cry 6when it is released in February. He will be one of the companions, called Amigos inFar Cry 6, that players can have along to help them out in the city.
This tiny cutie has a little wheelchair, filled to the brim with what looks like tools, ammo, weapons, and scopes. Players are looking forward for having this little guy as a partner-in-crime, flooding Twitter with their love for thetwo-legged wiener dog Chorizo.
The Companion system, which featured heavily inFar Cry 5, will return, allowing players to have Chorizo and others as amigos along for the bloody ride into the world ofFar Cry 6.But instead of Cheeseburger the Bear andPeaches the Mountain Lion, players will have this good little boy along with them, presumably to hold additional ammo and repair tools. Ubisoft describes him as “adorable wiener dog who’s as cute as he is lethal.”
If fans of the series pre-orderFar Cry 6, they will get an alternate costume for this adorable little killer too. He’ll have a bullet collar and spiky wheels on his tiny wheelchair of death to wear around theimpressiveFar Cry 6city of Yara.
Fans don’t know much about Chorizo the Handicapped Killer Pup just yet, but there’s still a lot of time until the February release ofFar Cry 6. But what else does anyone need to know about him with those big eyes? It remains to be seen what other animal companions come to the game, but Chorizo was a good choice for the first reveal based on his reception thus far.
Far Cry 6releases June 05, 2025 for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
