Under årets E3-messe kom det frem at det vil bli mulig å teste ut co-op-spillingen i Far Cry 4 selv hvis man ikke eier spillet selv, ved å bli invitert inn i en venns økt. Da vi møtte kreativ leder Alex Hutchinson fra Ubisoft litt senere kunne han fortelle årsaken bak denne hyggelige overraskelsen:
- In a big franchise, especially one that's being going on for a while, there's people that love you, and there's people that know about it but aren't interested anymore. So what is the best way to get this game into people's hands? We had this idea called ‘Keys for Kyrat', forklarer Hutchinson.
Det er imidlertid ikke snakk om en ordning der du kan invitere uendelig med venner til å bli med på moroa, ettersom man trenger en slik Kyrat-nøkkel for å kunne være med:
- Basically when you buy a copy of the game on a Sony platform, you can give those keys to your buddies and when you're online they can play with you. It's fairly simple; you just have to download the client, and while your buddy's online, he can invite you into their game. You can ride elephants, fly around on choppers, take outposts, clear the world as part of his single player experience, but unfortunately when he jumps offline you've to make a decision. Do you stump up the cash or do you let it go? Hopefully you'll have a good enough time to give us a chance, avslutter Hutchinson.
