Far Cry 6 Leak Hints of Possible Expansion Lost Between Worlds

DLC can expand Far Cry’s world and build upon characters that would otherwise be simple NPCs on the sideline with some interesting details. An entire expansion could add much-needed depth to the already released Far Cry 6. If A Game of the Year edition is released it would be new for the Far Cry series, with previous games receiving gold editions but not going so far as to release a GOTY edition. An expansion a year later is not unheard of for Far Cry, as the expansion Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon was released in 2013 while the base game was released in 2012. The previous DLC for Far Cry 6, Vaas Insanity, allowed fans to play as the villain himself, while the other DLC allowed similar experiences with Pagan and Joseph. This leads to speculation on what an expansion titled Lost Between Worlds could hold in store.

Far Cry has been a successful franchise since the first initial game release in 2004. A new expansion for Far Cry 6 would be on par with a structure that developer Crytek Studios has followed before, with DLC being released a while after the game. The expansion could include any number of stories for the player to follow, as previous DLCs have varied greatly on expanding the universe, creating developed worlds and leading to discussion about which Far Cry game ranks above the others in the long-running franchise.
