Comme prévu, Ubisoft vient de sortir le patch 1.05 pour Far Cry 3. Ce dernier introduit un mode de difficulté supplémentaire intitulé « maître » qui ajuste l'IA pour rendre le jeu plus difficile. Pour accompagner cette difficulté, les développeurs ont introduit la possibilité de reset tous les postes avancés, pour quelques heures de frags en perspective. Pour les créateurs, le jeu inclut désormais une option permettant aux autres joueurs de bêta tester les cartes en cours de création.

Le téléchargement du patch peut se faire directement via le client du jeu ou manuellement chez Gamer's Hell.

La liste complète des changements se trouve dans la suite de la nouvelle.
