Far Cry 2 is a first-person action shooter for PS3, set in an open world in a war-torn African country. The protagonist, a mercenary suffering from malaria, works with corrupt warlords on both sides of the conflict while trying to track down his main target. Missions can be completed through surprise, cunning or brute force by exploiting enemies’ weaknesses.

Fire is affected by the wind and spreads, allowing players to trap opponents with Molotov cocktails or flamethrowers. The environment is destructible and dynamic, even in multiplayer modes, while the DUNIA engine’s RealTree technology renders damage to nature. There are over 70 side missions to acquire information, weapons and vehicles, while rescuers carry injured soldiers to safety. The player’s actions affect their reputation and enemies’ behaviour. The technical features of the single-player mode are also available in multiplayer mode.
