The game’s trophies and achievements also started popping up online on sites like Exophase, which is usually the sign that the game in question is near release. Then on December 15, users from around the world began to report that it was on their region’s PlayStation Store. It did seem likely that Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon Classic Edition would be releasing imminently, as Gematsu found the listing on the Japanese PlayStation Store on December 8 with a release date for December 15. Aside from the general power boost games get from running in backwards compatibility mode, Blood Dragon Classic Edition does not appear to be one of the special games like God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, or even Ubisoft’s own Assassin’s Creed Odyssey that run significantly better on the new hardware in backwards compatibility mode.

An ESRB listing for the game does list PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions, but it’s not clear if they will see the light of day. However, it appears as though there is only a version for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, meaning there’s no native PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S edition. Those who haven’t purchased the Far Cry 6 season pass can pick it up for $14.99.

In September, the company gave a vague December release window for the remaster of ’80s-infused shooter, but still no specific date. Back in June, Ubisoft revealed that Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon Classic Edition was going to be included in Far Cry 6‘s season pass, but never announced when it was coming out.
