Far Cry 4: Escape from Durgesh Prison Critic Reviews

Ubisoft Montreal does another good job with this DLC. The change on dynamics in the development feels good, and even when we miss some more content, running away from Durgesh prison will give you rushing and enjoyable moments.

It feels more like a new gameplay mode than a true expansion to the single player campaign. Still, it delivers some good fun, but it remains way too expensive for what it offers.

The first big DLC for Far Cry 4 is a let-down. There is not any real new content and it offers a lot of repetition. Why buy this for the full price? But, not all is negative, it still feels great to shoot everything to pieces with an interesting range of weapons.

An overpriced DLC which just adds permadeath and a countdown to the original formula without changing anything else, turning Far Cry into Fast Cry.

A moderately interesting idea in theory, but the flawed execution makes this horrendously overpriced piece of DLC a waste of both time and money.

The first DLC for Far Cry 4 does not impress. The only challenge Escape from Durgesh Prison offers is the timer and permadeath, which is especially fun in co-op mode. Unfortunately the missions are too familiar and repetitive, we would have liked to have seen some original new content.

What could have been a far more interesting DLC ends in a wasted opportunity. It keeps some of the main game's craziness, though.

Unless you’re the sort who loves doing the same thing over and over again within artificial confines, there’s very little redeeming about this DLC.
