Far Cry 6 and all associated DLC will be playable for free between March 24 and March 27. The free-play weekend is part of its Stranger Things promotion, which is bringing a new cross-over mission to all players on March 24.

Ubisoft is running the event across all platforms (PC, Xbox and PlayStation), and your progress will be saved if you decide to purchase the game once the trial ends. Far Cry 6 is also seeing steep discounts during the event – with price cuts of up to 50% on the base game and DLC.

Far Cry 6 was released in October 2021, pulling in generally favorable reviews from critics.
