Far Cry 5 vs Valheim
Far Cry 5
Far Cry 5 brings you to Hope County, Montana, where a fanatical doomsday cult known as Eden's Gate has set up shop. Under the leadership of the charismatic and most definitely insane, Joseph Seed, and his enforcer-type siblings, the Heralds, the cult aims to literally hold the people of the county hostage until their perceived doomsday arrives. In this game, you'll need to ignite the embers of resistance into a full-on wildfire in an attempt to liberate the oppressed community from the grips of Joseph and his brainwashed congregation.Featuring an extensive customization system like no other, Far Cry 5 is also home to a wide range of weapons and cool "toys", including muscle cars, ATVs, planes and a whole lot more. You can even recruit mercenaries to aid you in your fight, or you can simply recruit a friend to play the game with you in its two-player co-op.
Far Cry 5 does seem to be following in the footsteps of the older Far Cry games where guns and vehicles dominate most of its gameplay. This is quite different from the latest Far Cry game which was set in the prehistoric times where you play a caveman. The game is not yet available in stores but you can pre-order the game on PS4, XBox, and Steam (PC).
