Far Cry 4 Season Pass

In a press release, Ubisoft has further expanded on the new piece of DLC, Escape from Durgesh Prison, a time trial in which the player will find themselves in a prison alongside Hurk, without weapons, and they will try to complete challenges, unlock new skills and reach the extraction point to get to safety.

Ubisoft says there will be no savepoints in the mission; "To ramp up the challenge, when players die they must start the mission over again and use the knowledge and skills they gained during their previous run through to help them reach their extraction point successfully."

Far Cry 4 released on November 18th this year, alongside a slew of other AAA games such as GTA 5, Little Big Planet 3 and Dragon Age: Inquisition, and reviewed well all over the board. You can check out TechRaptor's own review, written by Thomas Nelson, right here

Escape from Durgesh Prison will be available on January 14th, 2015, either as part of the Far Cry 4 Season Pass or as a separate piece of DLC. The Season Pass, in full, includes the following (The list is obviously subject to change, as Ubisoft could choose to include further pieces of DLC)

The Syringe – Already available exclusively for Season Pass holders, players must keep a rare and potent recipe from falling into the hands of Pagan Min’s forces. Playable in single-player and co-op, players will need to ensure that Pagan Min does not use its devastating effects on the rebel forces. Escape from Durgesh Prison – Available on January 13th 2015: The player and a fellow captive have been rounded up and tortured in Yuma’s prison. Players will have to escape from the prison and survive the hostile lands of Pagan Min’s Kyrat. Hurk Deluxe Pack – Five missions, playable in single-player and co-op, including Yak Farm, Blood Ruby and Hurk’s Redemption are available. Access an arsenal of new weapons including a harpoon gun for Hurk. Overrun – Team up as Rakshasa or Golden Path in this PvP mode and control a series of neutral locations across Kyrat’s countryside to protect them from being overrun by your opponents. Valley of the Yetis – Ajay’s helicopter has crashed on an unforgiving Himalayan ridge. Explore the frozen landscape and find tools to upgrade your camp and protect it from a dangerous cult when night falls. With single-player and co-op options, players will not be alone, but in the darkest caves players will have more to fear than the cult as the yetis await their prey…
