Released in 2016 for the Xbox One, Far Cry: Primal deviates from the main series' modern-day settings by bringing players to the prehistoric era of the Mesolithic period. Unlike its predecessors, the game focuses on survival and wildlife combat, reflecting the harsh conditions of the time. As Takkar, a hunter of the Wenja tribe, players craft weapons from natural resources and tame wild animals to gain an edge in the struggle to build a safe haven for his people against rival tribes and predators.
