The fact that the comic will bring up the events of 5 indicates that this cannot take place before it, and all Far Cry games take place on the year of their release- but it remains to be seen what the status of the rest of the world is.


** It appears as if the overly dark endings of ''VideoGame/FarCry5'', in particular the "Resist/Nuke" ending, are being outright retconned for this game, or at least takes place before it. There's no mention of countries threatening one another with nukes: the main conflict appears to be between Castillo's supporters and the revolutionaries.

** The entire cinematic reveal trailer. Anton Castillo walks into his study to find his son Diego putting together a model car. Dismissing it as useless, he presents his son with a more "appropriate" gift, a live grenade that he slips into his son's hands, and then pulls out the pin, [[AbusiveParents forcing his nervous son to hold on tight to the grenade]] before leading him upstairs onto the rooftop, where Diego nearly trips on a cable after following his father. There, his father [[GoodSmokingEvilSmoking lights up a cigar]] while overseeing the current massive protests between bare-chested protester throwing Molotov cocktails, and riot police with shields and batons, including one bloodstained protester being forced to his knees, who happens to look a lot like Vaas. He then warns his son that the people of Yara are like the grenade in his hands, "and you must hold them nice and tight, or we all go boom. Do you understand? Prove it..." And he leaves his son clutching onto the grenade in plain sight of the protesters on the edge of the rooftop. And just as we cut to the title, Diego appears to be starting to loosen his grip...

** Also from ''5'' and ''VideoGame/FarCryNewDawn'', while fans liked the customizable feature for the Deputy and Captain, they didn’t like how they were both a HeroicMime. Compared to them, Rojas appears to have personality and the ability to speak.

** The "Diego is Vaas" epileptic trees which was based mostly on a small scar on both characters right eyebrow became a meme as people started calling 'any' character with a similar scar or their brow being cut as being either Diego or Vaas. These include Literature/HarryPotter, [[VideoGame/TheLastOfUs Ellie]], Music/VanillaIce, [[Disney/TheLionKing Mufasa]], and Creator/JasonMomoa.

* OlderThanTheyThink: News site [=VG24/7=] thought that ''Far Cry 6'' was the first time Giancarlo had done videogame work, seemingly forgetting about ''VideoGame/PAYDAY2'', in which he was a contractor and, [[WalkingSpoiler for reasons too spoileriffic to go into here]], turned into an in-game model in 2018, beating ''Far Cry 6'' by seven years. In fairness to the editors, they did remove this article that contained this misinformation.
