The game's worldview is arguably the most unique in the entire series, taking place in the "distant future" of 2007, which is based on the eighties of the last century, just as we now look back at the future world described in Terminator 1, where the original order system was broken due to nuclear war, and the mysterious Cyber robot army occupied a small island in a vain attempt to use modern robots and resurrect ancient dinosaurs to achieve the evil purpose of ruling the earth. You'll play as sergeant Rex Colt, half-human, half-mechanical, armed with a variety of powerful weapons on this monster-filled island, with gods blocking the gods, Buddha blocking the Buddha, and at all costs to bring down your former commander and his killers who don't blink
The content of this work belongs to the simplified version of "Far Cry 3", there are multiple main missions of a single route, while exploring the open world, there are a total of 13 fortresses on the map, after occupation can be used as a teleportation point, so as to complete the hostage rescue, hunting and other side quests, when occupying the fortress, try to avoid ringing alarms, this is also one of the classic features of the Far Cry series, the Blood Dragon map removed the 3 generations of the original version of the very interesting "climbing tower" element, a pity, However, the various file collections on the map still give players plenty of desire to explore

The biggest change in combat is the dinosaurs that may appear at any time on the map, this behemoth will attack the enemy and us indiscriminately, but it has poor vision, crouching and walking can be bypassed, if you want to knock down the dinosaurs need sufficient firepower, the game has an achievement, requiring the player to use a bow and arrow to knock down a dinosaur, the original tried several times to get it
The blood dragon's screen color is quite old-fashioned neon style, and it will be a little uncomfortable when first touched, but it will soon be immersed in a simple and refreshing game world, the protagonist voiced is Michael Biehn, who plays the male protagonist Kyles (John Connor's father) in the Terminator 1 generation, there is a lot of American black humor in the mission dialogue, and even the game teaching that is too lengthy in the game now, making sarcasm and spitting
