Six years, $140 million, and one big reset later, Farlight 84 has relaunched, and it’s aiming to flip the battle royale scene on its head.
Now available on Steam, Epic Games Store, iOS, and Android, the new and improved Farlight 84 brings a full suite of game-changing updates, from a freshly implemented first-person mode to new heroes, a new map, and a completely overhauled Buddy System. Whether you’re a returning player or a total newcomer, this version of Farlight 84 feels like a fresh start.
What’s new in Farlight 84?
At the centre of the update is First-Person Mode, transforming the feel of combat and giving players a brand-new perspective on this chaotic hero shooter. Combine that with revamped visuals, smoother controls, and redesigned gunplay, and you’ve got a sharper, more immersive experience across the board.
There’s also Nextara, a brand-new map packed with verticality, tight skirmish zones and high-speed traversal options — perfect for testing out the new parkour mechanics and the ridiculous Rat Cannon, which lets you literally launch across the battlefield in style.
But what really sets Farlight 84 apart is the Buddy System 2.0. Yes, you can now collect and deploy pet companions mid-match — from support specialists to invisible item thieves — adding another strategic layer to your loadout. “Super Buddies” even come with powerful, match-shifting perks.
