Set in the "distant future" of 2007 after a nuclear war, you play as , a Mark IV Cyber Commando voiced by 80s action icon Michael Biehn ( The Terminator , Aliens ).

While it uses the same engine as Far Cry 3 , Blood Dragon simplifies and stylizes the core loop:

Rex is deployed to an unnamed tropical island to stop his rogue former commander, Colonel Ike Sloan , who plans to use the blood of "Blood Dragons" to revert the world to a prehistoric state using biochemical rockets.

Rex levels up through "CP" (Cyber Points) to unlock skills automatically. You don't craft items; instead, completing side missions—like Hostage Rescues and Predator's Path hunts—unlocks attachments for your retro-futuristic arsenal.

is a standalone expansion to Far Cry 3 that completely abandons the gritty island survival of the main game for a neon-soaked, 80s-inspired "cyber-action" parody. Released in 2013, it serves as a distilled, high-octane version of the Far Cry formula, prioritizing style, irony, and absurdity. Plot and Setting
