Dead Living Zombies join Far Cry 5 as the final DLC

Ubisoft has announced that the final piece of DLC content for Far Cry 5 is out now and invites players to journey to the realm of a d-grade movie director and fight hordes of zombies in, Dead Living Zombies.

Far Cry 5: Dead Living Zombies pairs players with Guy Marvel – the D-tier film director we first met in Far Cry 5 – as he pitches his vision for an epic zombie saga. In maps built from the powerful Far Cry Arcade editor, players will explore seven different film scenarios as they face hordes of the undead across rooftops, farmlands, military bases and more. After completing each map, players can unlock Score Attack to achieve three-star ratings, which will unlock weapons and gear to bring back to Hope County.

In addition, the game also scores a New Game+ mode with this DLC, giving players an option to restart the Far Cry 5 story after completing the main campaign, keeping their character progression. New Game + contains new elements such as upgradable perks in the main campaign and the higher-difficulty Infamous mode, in which AI have more health, take more damage and react more quickly to a player’s presence.

For those that enjoy the Arcade mode, a new Scripting tool has been added to the mode. The Scripting Tool allows mapmakers to trigger different actions in their maps based on player behaviour. For example, when players perform specific actions – like killing enemies, reaching a location or looking at specific objects – mapmakers can then change the time of day, teleport the player, add slow motion, change the music and add or remove enemies or gameplay objects. These tools open up a new realm of possibilities, allowing mapmakers to add an entirely new layer of visual storytelling to their creations.
