Far Cry VR is a third-party mod for the 2004 PC gaming classic by CryTek. It allows players to experience the world of Far Cry in virtual reality.

Features:
  • full 6DoF roomscale VR experience: play seated or standing with VR motion controllers
    • (or play seated with keyboard and mouse)
  • aim your guns naturally with your hands; use two hands to stabilize the guns further
  • physically swing the machete
  • aim mounted and vehicle guns by pointing with your main hand
  • left-handed support

Installation instructions

  • Download and install Far Cry, if you haven’t already. The game needs to be patched to v1.4; this is already the case for the Steam and gog versions.
  • Download the Far Cry VR installer from the link above and run it. Note: the installer is not signed, so your browser and/or Windows will likely complain about not trusting the installer. You will have to tellWindows to run the installer, anyway.
  • Make sure to select the right path to your Far Cry installation. If you are not sure where it resides, in Steam you can right-click on the game and select “Manage -> Browse local files” to find the path on your machine. Similarly, in GOG Galaxy you can right-click on the game and go to “Manage installation -> Show folder”.
  • Finish the installer.
You can now launch Far Cry VR by executing the FarCryVR.bat in your Far Cry install folder. Far Cry VR requires SteamVR; if you have trouble starting the game, make sure that SteamVR is running first and working with your VR headset.

NOTE: by default, the installer runs without admin privileges as the Far Cry game folder should be user-writeable.If you run into issues, you may need to explicitly run the installer as an administrator. To do so, right-click on it and select “Run as administrator”.
