Far Cry 4

Shooting and gunplay

Sleeping Dogs

Dark, serious atmosphere

As undercover cop Wei Shen, you infiltrate the Triads in a neon-lit Hong Kong, brawling through kung-fu-movie style melee with counters and brutal environmental takedowns, plus car chases. Its tale of torn loyalties between police and gang is the real hook.

Far Cry 6
