Far Cry 3 screenshots: driving, bazookas, ziplines and machetes

Ubisoft shows off new characters, ironsights, idyllic beaches

If yesterday's Far Cry 3 trailer left you hankering for some actual gameplay, these new screenshots should ease the pain. They depict a bunch of charming island holiday activities. Ziplines, for instance - have you ever thought about doing something while you're riding one?

Also shown is one of the game's resident nutjobs, Dr. Earnhardt, plus some behind-the-wheel vehicular action and a man on the brink of contracting a serious sharp-metal-related stomach infection. Can't be too careful about hygiene in the tropics.

You'll read more about everything here in this month's OXM, which goes out to subscribers today. The issue hits news-stands on 22nd February.

  1. If it looks a bit better than FC2 then I'll be happy, as these screens look very PC or not gameplay at all, the colours and style all seem great, and we've got cars and boats confirmed, looks really good - and mushroom in a sample tub? Could be a good story behind it too.

  2. I am quite optimistic about this.It reminds me a bit of the first in some ways,obviously.I hope they have kept the hang glider as well.
