Far Cry 6: 10 Reasons The Haters Are Wrong

5. Amigos

This is not the first Far Cry game to feature animal companions, but the group in FC6 may be the best overall collection we've been offered so far.

Your amigos have tons of character, versatility, and variety. Whether you play stealth or guns blazing, there's a choice for you.

Want to be escorted by a jersey-wearing crocodile? Check. Prefer your companion to be a sleek, stealthy, pretty-eyed jaguar? Check. Want a companion from a previous game, a good ol' boy who is loyal beyond measure? Check. (There are a few neat ties like this to previous FC games, usually found through letters or notes scattered around Yara.)

Special mention must be made of Chorizo, who was heavily featured in pre-release PR artwork, and for good reason. He's awesome!

Chorizo is a wee dachshund pup who has ben injured in a previous incident, necessitating that he is in a doggie wheelchair. This is no obstacle for Chorizo, however, and in fact a benefit, as the pup carries tools and supplies on his chair.

Aside from finding buried items for you, Chorizo has a unique combat skill - cuteness. When you send him into battle, he will run up to enemy soldiers, stop, and then begin barking and wagging his tail, distracting soldiers...

Who you can then kill with an arrow to the head. Chorizo is an adorable stone cold accessory to murder.
