Ubisoft has revealed Far Cry Primal will be getting a Survivor Mode.

Far Cry Primal’s Survivor Mode will become available as part of a free patch that will be released on April 12th. Players can expect a change in how exploration and crafting work as well as the game’s difficulty to make it more realistic.

You’ll also be able to activate an option for permadeath, which would make the Survivor Mode even more realistic. If that’s too extreme for you, there’s a mode that will give you one spare life, which should help you decide when you want to be more cautious with your adventure. The spare life will refill itself at certain points in the game.
