Far Cry 4: Valley of the Yetis

Everything else feels wasted. The station defense battles are spectacles, but not that challenging. The Yetis are intimidating, but don’t stay scary for long. With no legitimate lead into or out of the story, it’s hard to take any of it seriously. It’s definitely the biggest chunk of extra content to come out of the game, but not the best.

Valley of the Yetis is easily Far Cry 4's best post-release offering. It's small enough where you can see everything it has to offer in a reasonable amount of time, but large enough where you feel like you're getting a whole new Far Cry 4 experience. It's more Far Cry 4 in the best way, and there's enough new content here where nothing feels like a retread – it feels like an extension.

Fortunately, even though you'll be repeating yourself when it comes to character progression, all of the parts that made Far Cry 4 so great the first time around are present and correct. ...Valley of the Yetis feels like a medley of Far Cry 4's greatest hits, and while none of the missions stray particularly far from the established formula, you'll still have fun scavenging for weapons and building your defences, which at least makes up for the disappointing Yetis.
