Enter the Mind of a Villain in Far Cry 6 – Vaas: Insanity DLC Episode

Far Cry 6’s first DLC episode is out now, taking you deep into the twisted mind of one of Far Cry’s most infamous and enigmatic villains: Far Cry 3’s Vaas Montenegro. In Vaas: Insanity, available now for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, you’ll play as the unstable pirate (voiced by original Vaas actor Michael Mando) as he fights to escape the deadly, dreamlike confines of his own mind. Far Cry 6 owners can grab it as part of the Season Pass, or as a separate purchase.

Inspired by roguelites, every death in Vaas: Insanity leaves Vaas weakened, without his weapons and cash. As players push deeper into Vaas’ twisted psyche, however, they’ll be able to unlock permanent traits that will help them master their deadly environment. Confronting the dangers that lurk in Vaas’ mind will also reveal more about his past and personal demons, giving players a behind-the-eyes view of what makes a ruthless villain tick. And like the rest of Far Cry 6, Vaas: Insanity is fully playable with a buddy in co-op; in fact, players who own Vaas: Insanity can invite another Far Cry 6 player on Xbox to join them, whether or not that player also owns the DLC.

Vaas: Insanity is the first of three DLC episodes starring legendary Far Cry villains. Two more – Pagan: Control and Joseph: Collapse, respectively set in the minds of Far Cry 4’s Pagan Min and Far Cry 5’s Joseph “The Father” Seed – are coming soon. All three are included as part of the Far Cry 6 Season Pass, as is the standalone, neon-drenched Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon.

Far Cry 6 owners can start diving into Vaas: Insanity today. If you’ve ever wondered what exactly was going on just underneath that mohawk, now’s your chance to get a front-row seat.
