New Stranger Things-themed crossover DLC launches later this week for Far Cry 6, Ubisoft has confirmed. Alongside it, Far Cry 6 will be playable for free over the weekend, allowing even the Stranger Things content to be accessed by those who don’t own the game.
The Stranger Things crossover mission, which is called The Vanishing, arrives March 24. In The Vanishing, something happens to your adorable little pup, Chorizo, and you must find and save him. The teaser trailer seems to suggest that the demogorgon has something to do with Chorizo’s disappearance.
The entire Far Cry 6 experience, including The Vanishing, is free to play between March 24-27, and the full game is marked down 50%. The Season Pass, meanwhile, is available for 35% off.
The Stranger Things crossover in Far Cry 6 follows the game’s Danny Trejo and Rambo DLC. In addition to these free expansions, Far Cry 6’s paid DLC has so far included add-ons based on antagonists of previous Far Cry games, including Vaas [Far Cry 3], Pagan Min [Far Cry 4], and Joseph Seed [Far Cry 5].
As for Stranger Things the TV show, the first part of Season 4 arrives in May on Netflix, with the second installment set to arrive in July. A fifth season is coming after that to end the main series, but there could be spin-offs that extend the wider Stranger Things universe further. New photos of Stranger Things Season 4 have just been released, ahead of the Far Cry 6 content’s premiere.
