Far Cry 6 Weapons – Everything You Need To Know

October 7th, 2021 JP J Articles, Guides

It’s a commonly-known fact that if you’re trying to overthrow a nasty dictator in a video game, you basically need the collective arsenal of a small country to get the job done. Like all the previous games, the weapons in Ubisoft’s Far Cry 6 certainly don’t disappoint in this regard, so we’re here to fill you in on all the weapons that you can use in your struggle against the villainous Antón Castillo and his seemingly-inexhaustible supply of gun-toting goons.

How Many Weapons Are There In Far Cry 6?

There are 91 weapons in Far Cry 6 – that’s a whole lotta bang-bang. There’s more than meets the eye with that total, however, as not only do all of those weapons fall into eight different categories, but there are “unique” variants of those weapon types. These provide not only a fancy skin, but exceedingly-good stats too. The eight different weapon types are:

Bows
Launchers
LMGs
Resolver weapons
Rifles
Shotguns
SMGs
Sniper rifles
