Far Cry 6 Glitch Turns The Game Into Tiny Top-Down Chaos

screenrant.com:

A Far Cry 6 player recently found themselves trapped in a third-person glitch that saw the game morph into a chaotic top-down experience. It's worth noting that Far Cry 6 does feature third-person gameplay in some instances, particularly those where protagonist Dani Rojas wanders around ally camps. Players can't toggle the option on and off at leisure, though, so the vast majority of the shooter takes place from the first-person perspective like every other Far Cry title.

Developer Ubisoft Toronto led production on the sixth mainline Far Cry entry, which drops players onto the fictional island of Yara amid a violent revolution. Dani Rojas joins the cause for their people, helping to unify disparate insurgent groups on the island to present a united front against Yara's ruthless dictator, Antón Castillo. Like several other Far Cry titles before it, this particular adventure follows the open-world Ubisoft formula; however, the experience walks its own path here and there to mix things up with regards to the way players tackle the overarching narrative.

Such a bug doesn't sound too bad on its own, yet the camera's switch to a top-down view every now and then complicated things. In the gameplay footage featured below, the player seems to have very little control over Dani's and the camera's general movements. Simple tasks like getting into a vehicle appear nigh
