Far Cry 6's Vaas: Insanity paid DLC is out next week

Far Cry 6’s first chunk of paid DLC, titled Vaas: Insanity, will launch next Tuesday, 16th November on Xbox, PlayStation, PC, Amazon Luna, and Stadia.

As announced previously, Far Cry 6’s paid post-launch content will cast players as some of the series’ most infamous villains – specifically Far Cry 3’s Vaas Montenegro, Far Cry 4’s Pagan Min, and Far Cry 5’s Joseph Seed – across three roguelite-inspired episodes.

Next week’s Vaas: Insanity will, unsurprisingly, introduce Vaas Montenegro – voiced by Better Call Saul’s Michael Mando – as a playable character. “Starting with nothing more than a pistol to defend themselves,” Ubisoft explains, “players will need to find new weapons and unlock power-ups to become stronger and progress deeper into the depths of Vaas’ psyche.”

Ubisoft says Vaas: Insanity’s blend of “intense action and storytelling” will offer a “unique opportunity to better understand Vaas’ past, personal demons and motivations”.

Following Vaas: Insanity’s launch next week, paying players can expect to get their hands on Episodes 2 and 3 – titled Pagan: Control and Joseph: Collapse respectively – in January and March next year. Additionally, Far Cry 6 will also receive a number of free crossover missions featuring appearances from Rambo, Stranger Things, and actor Danny Trejo.
