Ubisoft has announced that the nudity previously removed from Far Cry 4 is back after a global censorship error. Players were concerned over the unexpected changes that surfaced due to an update meant for a specific regional version of the game.
This situation came to light when Insider Gaming reported on the issue earlier today. The official Far Cry account addressed these concerns directly on social media: “To clarify, the update was the result of a mistake during deployment. Content intended specifically for the Japanese version of the game was accidentally pushed to the global Steam version.”
The developers reassured players, stating, “The team has since corrected the error by reuploading the proper global files to Steam. If players still see anything unusual, restarting Steam and checking for updates should resolve it. Just to reassure everyone: there are no plans to censor Far Cry. This was purely a regional packaging error and has now been fully addressed. Thank you.”
This means fans can breathe easy once more, nudity is officially reinstated in Far Cry 4. Ubisoft community developer Patricia Brochu-Gagné also took the matter to Reddit with further details, explaining, “This was simply an error tied to a specific regional build, and it’s now been corrected.”
Far Cry 4, which sold over ten million copies during its run on PS4 and Xbox One, is often hailed as one of the standout titles in its franchise. Despite this hiccup, it’s clear that its legacy remains intact.
