Microsoft has recently unveiled their latest promotion to the fans who would like to preorder the upcoming Ubisoft title, "Far Cry: Primal." Those who will place a preorder for the IP will get to receive a free digital copy of the World War I adventure game, "Valiant Hearts: The Great War," as briefly mentioned on the report from Major Nelson.

Unfortunately, this bundle only has a limited time offer and according to the official Xbox Store listing, fans who preordered "Far Cry: Primal" can only download "Valiant Hearts: The Great War" for free before April 14, 2016.

Aside from the free game, this Digital Edition for "Primal" will come with the "Legend of the Mammoth" pack, which adds three more missions into the IP. No announcements yet, though, coming from other manufacturers if they will have some sort of bundle just like what Microsoft has offered to the fans.

Meanwhile, as for what to expect in "Far Cry: Primal," it seems like Ubisoft has finally decided to drop the co-op feature of the upcoming title and give more focus to the single-player aspect of it. "This was definitely not a small undertaking," community manager Jason Paradise said on the reply from a Steam post earlier last month. "Our focus was on delivering this fantasy which required clear priorities for the team. Therefore, in the early stages of the project, we made the difficult choice of focusing our efforts on the single player experience."

"Far Cry: Primal" is set to come out on Feb. 23, 2016 for the current-gen consoles PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, while the fans on the PC platform can buy the game starting on March 1, 2016. The new installment in the franchise will have a totally different narrative, which is set in the Stone Age around 12,000 years before the present time.
