News of the next Far Cry installment has been being steadily released as the days count down to its release in a few months from now. Set way back in time, Far Cry Primal will be launched in February… but not for PC players now Ubisoft say.

Delays of the PC port aren’t that uncommon with Ubisoft, with Assassin’s Creed Syndicate taking around a month to make it to Pc after its release upon consoles. This time however the delay is just a week, pushing the release into the beginning of March.

“The team are giving themselves that short additional time to ensure that the PC version is as polished and optimised as the other formats,” Ubisoft commented about the delay.

So, a logical and expected reason. Let’s hope that they actually manage it this time to avoid another Unity situation, which didn’t exactly do much to shift the reputation Ubisoft’s got for sloppy PC porting of their games in the recent years. Both Syndicate and the Rainbow Six Siege ports seemed more stable and optimised though, so there is some hope for the extra week to make the difference.

Fingers crossed.
