FARCRY 3 Classic Edition is a landmark open-world action-adventure shooter that puts players in the role of Jason Brody, a stranded tourist fighting to survive and escape a lawless tropical island.

FARCRY 3: Blood Dragon Classic Edition is a retro-futuristic standalone action shooter inspired by classic 1980s sci-fi films, sending players into a neon-soaked vision of the future packed with over-the-top action. As cyber-commando Rex “Power” Colt, players battle cyborg soldiers, mutant creatures and deadly Blood Dragons in a stylish, self-contained adventure that turns the FARCRY formula into an outrageous tribute to VHS-era action fantasy.
