About Far Cry: Primal. Far Cry Primal is an action-adventure video game. The game is set in 10,000 BCE during the beginning of the Mesolithic. It takes place in the fictional Oros valley in Central Europe, an open world filled with different types of flora and fauna. Unlike previous games, there is prehistoric wildlife such as mammoths, dire wolves, cave bear, cave lions, woolly rhinos, Irish elk and saber-toothed cats along with ancestors of modern creatures like brown bears, badgers, and deer. Survival is a daily challenge as tribes come into conflict with one another and nature. Players take on the role of a Wenja tribesman named Takkar (Elias Toufexis), who is stranded in Oros with no weapons after his hunting party is ambushed.Takkar, using his newfound skill of taming animals, will eventually rise to power and lead his own tribe.
