Ubisoft has revealed that Far Cry New Dawn is set to get a 60 fps patch on PlayStation and other consoles. The game was released in 2019 and is a spin-off game that takes after Far Cry 5.
Far Cry New Dawn, created by studio Ubisoft Montreal, centers on a group of survivors battling opposing groups for the last resources in a post-apocalyptic world. It did not receive the same favorable critical acclaim as its predecessor at launch, receiving mediocre reviews overall. Even though the majority of players have probably moved on from New Dawn in the years after it was released, Ubisoft just revealed some information that could persuade some people who haven’t played the game to do so at some time.
Unexpectedly, Ubisoft Support’s official account said that a 60 FPS update for Far Cry New Dawn will soon be available for the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. The revelation seemed to come out of the blue since the Xbox Series consoles needed to temporarily stop the game’s FPS Boost to prepare for the performance update. It was disclosed that this temporary modification would allow for a “smooth roll out [sic]” of the next upgrade and would begin on January 31, 2025, at 4 PM PST or 7 PM EST.
The tweet also made it clear that PlayStation players would not need to take any extra steps to get the 60 FPS fix; only Xbox users would be impacted. Although a release date has not been set, some are speculating that it could coincide with the February 4, 2025, Xbox game pass launch of Far Cry New Dawn.
Far Cry New Dawn Performance patch
It’s not unusual for Ubisoft to update the almost six-year-old Far Cry New Dawn to the latest platforms; in the past, the company has released updates for other outdated games. A 60 FPS patch for 2015’s Assassin’s Creed Syndicate was released by the French game publisher back in November 2024. Performance improvements are only one aspect of Ubisoft’s work on previous editions; most recently, the developers introduced achievements to Far Cry 5 and Far Cry 6 on Steam.
