New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….
Original story (published on November 03, 2021) follows:
Ever since the game was launched on October 7 this year, Far Cry 6 has been nothing short of a bug fest. Ubisoft’s latest game in the long-running Far Cry franchise seems to be affected by a number of issues.
Some of these bugs and glitches made Far Cry 6 unplayable at times and are making players angry with Ubisoft. It seems like Ubisoft developers are inspired by those at Electronic Arts.
While previous updates have broken the game n number of times, it seems that Title Update 2 has broken the Far Cry 6 Weapon wheel. This is causing a lot of annoyance since players are unable to select weapons.
The reports come from console players suggesting that it surfaced after the latest update. You can see how the weapon wheels bug is affecting players in the video below.
Unfortunately, standard resolutions such as verifying game files, restarting the console, and reinstalling the game do not seem to fix the broken Far Cry 6 weapon wheel.
Moreover, we cannot find any workaround that seems to resolve the aforementioned issue. That being said, it looks like Far Cry 6 players will have to live with the broken weapon wheel until Ubisoft releases a fix.
When they do, we will update this article to reflect the same so make you keep checking this space for more information.
