Ubisoft has just released a trailer for the new Rambo crossover mission in Far Cry 6, which is being added to the game via an update today. The Rambo mission is the latest post-release content for Far Cry 6. Previous updates have included a Danny Trejo mission and roguelike modes using the villains from previous Far Cry games. Check out the trailer for the new Rambo mission below.
Unlike the Danny Trejo mission, this new Far Cry 6 Rambo mission doesn’t actually feature the man himself. Instead, the mission has players helping a Rambo “superfan” take on the Yaran military. Based on the trailer, the new mission looks to be heavily inspired by the Rambo movies with set-pieces in a similar style and even lines lifted straight from the 80s classics. Upon completing “All the Blood” players will be given a “Vengeance Bow.” The bow has explosive arrows which make it perfect for taking down helicopters and heavy vehicles. Also available in today’s update is Rambo-inspired gear that players can customize their characters with.
Ubisoft’s post-release support of its single-player games has been improving in recent years. In order to keep players engaged, the company has been supporting its single-player games with free and paid post-release content. Far Cry 6 is no different. Although how long the game will receive support is uncertain at this point. Ubisoft recently ceased support for Watch Dogs: Legion after just over a year. However, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is the first game in the series to receive two years of post-launch content. Valhalla will be receiving its biggest expansion yet, Dawn of Ragnarok, in March after releasing in November 2020. It’s possible that Far Cry 6 receives a similar level of support, although Ubisoft has not announced anything to date.
Today’s update also includes some quality of life improvements and bug fixes for Far Cry 6. Check out the full patch notes for the game below.

QUALITY-OF-LIFE UPDATES
Guerilla Camps:
We made an update to upgrading your Guerilla Camps while playing co-op. Previously, upgrading your Camp while you were playing with somebody else would trigger a consent popup for other players in the party when you were upgrading a building. With TU4 this is no longer the case, and you can freely upgrade your camp.
Ammunition pick-up from enemies:
We have added a notification to the HUD when you are at the maximum ammunition and are trying to loot ammunition from enemies. Previously, you didn’t get any notification and it could be confusing why enemy bodies were highlighted but you wouldn’t receive any loot or notification.
Enemy health bars and icons in vehicles:
When dealing with enemies in vehicles it has been a bit difficult to differentiate between the vehicle health, enemy health and enemy type. With TU4 we’re changing the way this is displayed by hiding enemy markers while they are inside of a vehicle, to make fights more readable.
