How to get the secret Far Cry 6 ending

Twitter user, Okami Games, has shared the secret ending, and here it is.

Very early on in the game, before the main adventure even really starts, you will be on a boat and you will play a part in the destruction of two much larger ones. After that is done, you will be directed where to go for the next mission, but rather than following the marker, you instead go rogue and keep sailing out into open waters.

Just keep going and before too long, you will trigger a cut scene which is the ending sequence. Dani will end up on a beach, loving life, while things have not gone well for those she has abandoned at home. We are told that the leader of the rebel group Libertad is dead and that the war in Yara is over.

How many endings are there in Far Cry 6?

Apart from the secret ending discussed above, there is only one true ending to the main story of Far Cry 6. The final act of the game will not give you any choices that alter what happens in the last scene. And so, you don't have to worry about making any wrong decisions along the way. Just keep on playing, following the main objectives, and you'll eventually see the game's one canonical conclusion.

Does Far Cry 6 have a post-credits scene?

Yes, Far Cry 6 does have a post-credits scene. You'll want to keep paying attention right until the final title card. If you already know what happens, or don't mind finding out, keep reading for a big spoiler.

Over the game's final title card, you'll hear a fairly innocuous conversation between two people, one of whom will sound very familiar to long-term fans of this franchise.

Although the subtitles simply refer to this chap as 'Smuggler', fans will notice that the voice of this mysterious character is played by Michael Mando - the very same actor who voiced Vaas Montenegro in Far Cry 3.

Vaas is believed to be returning in Far Cry 6's villain-stuffed season pass DLC, but players are now wondering if this post-credits teaser is alluding to a bigger project than that. Perhaps Vaas will return in Far Cry 7 or another project? Only time will tell, of course!
