Ubisoft Quietly Reverses Far Cry 4 Censorship After Controversial Patch

A surprise update censored nudity in the decade-old game, but a second patch appears to have restored the original content without explanation from Ubisoft.

Ubisoft released an unexpected patch for Far Cry 4 on April 3, 2025, reportedly censoring nudity in the PC version over a decade after the game's release.
The initial patch altered specific elements, including covering a topless character at Shanath Arena and adding a loincloth to protagonist Ajay Ghale during a mission.
Players noted the absence of official patch notes, leaving the full extent of the changes unclear and sparking confusion within the gaming community.
A second patch, released shortly after the first, appears to have reversed the censorship, restoring the original content, though Ubisoft has not confirmed this or provided any explanation.
Speculation suggests the changes may have resulted from a mix-up between the Japanese and worldwide versions of the game, which adhere to different content standards.
