Reception

Valley of the Yetis is a good looking DLC that changes a lot about how Far Cry 4 works, but it lasts only for a few hours and vistas are way more exciting than the actual gameplay.

The best thing Valley of the Yetis has going for it is the inherent fun that comes from using Far Cry 4's skills, weapons, and vehicles. Everything else feels wasted. The station defense battles are spectacles, but not that challenging. The Yetis are intimidating, but don't stay scary for long. With no legitimate lead into or out of the story, it's...

Valley of the Yetis is a decent piece of DLC for Far Cry 4, but it's not the Bigfoot game I've been waiting for.

Fantasy enemies clearly work very well with Far Cry, but this abridged version of the main game really should be having more fun with its characters than this.

I love the new snowy setting, and there are some fun moments here, but ultimately Valley of the Yetis plays it too safe.
