Synopsis[]

If you think you’ve finished Far Cry 6, we have a new free crossover mission for you to experience. This time around, you can expect things to get a little strange.

Dani Rojas gets a call from Juan Cortez regarding a C4 shipment and a group of missing Guerrillas. He mentions that he’s picked up Russian radio transmissions and suspects that Yara's old allies have come back to mess with Libertad's operations.

With Dani up to the task, you accept the mission and head over to the Guerrilla’s last known location and investigate for further details. Upon your arrival, Dani notices something is off. You quickly get a sense that not everything is as it seems as you dive into deeper and darker territories.
