Two days ago we brought you the news that two separate Far Cry collections were coming, one in the US and another in Europe. The US version is an Xbox 360 exclusive and will come with Far Cry 2, Far Cry 3, and Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. The European version, titled Far Cry: The Wild Expedition, also includes Far Cry Classic and will also be coming to PlayStation 3.
Today, it was announced that Far Cry Classic will be coming to both PSN and XBLA for £7.99 in Europe on February 12, two days before the release of Far Cry: The Wild Expedition.
There is no word on whether Far Cry Classic will be coming to these platforms in digital form in the US at some point. It just seems like lost money as it won’t be in the actual collection in the US, but there must be some reason that it wasn’t part of said collection. We’ll just have to wait and see at this point.
