About

Far Cry 4 is an action-adventure game released in 2014 that puts you in the exotic region of Kyrat, where diverse terrain ranges from dense forests to snow-covered Himalayan peaks. The game stands out for its vibrant open world filled with dangerous wildlife and dynamic environmental encounters, where you'll hunt for resources while facing threats from both enemies and nature. New features like the gyrocopter add fresh gameplay mechanics to the Far Cry formula.

Far Cry 4 remains quite accessible for modern PCs, making it an excellent benchmark title for entry-level systems. You'll need at minimum a GPU with a score around 1948 and a CPU around 2554 to meet baseline requirements with 4 GB of RAM. However, to achieve solid 60+ FPS at higher graphics settings, we recommend a mid-range GPU that can handle the game's demanding draw distances and wildlife-heavy scenes. Performance scales well across different hardware tiers, making it ideal for testing your system's capabilities.

If you enjoy action games with strong exploration elements, Far Cry 4's 76/100 rating reflects a solid experience worth your time. The combination of environmental storytelling, combat variety, and beautiful world design makes it worth benchmarking and playing on capable hardware.

Performance profile

Released in November 2014, Far Cry 4 sits in the DirectX 11 generation. Comfortable on any modern mid-range GPU at 1440p; even an RTX 3050 or RX 6600 typically delivers 4K60 at High settings.

Far Cry 4 is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.

Extremely light — Far Cry 4 runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

Hidden in the towering Himalayas lies Kyrat, a country steeped in tradition and violence. You are Ajay Ghale. Traveling to Kyrat to fulfill your mother’s dying wish, you find yourself caught up in a civil war to overthrow the oppressive regime of dictator Pagan Min.
