The latest title in the famous Far Cry franchise does not feature AK47s, Bazookas or Flamethrowers. Set in the Stone Age around 10000 BC, Far Cry Primal is a different game. Set in the fictional land of Oros, humans then were still a part of the food chain and not on top of it. Surviving against wild animals and savage enemies like The Udams and The Izila was an everyday life. To survive in the game, the player must learn and master the crafting skills to be able to forge weapons. Let’s see how to upgrade crafting skills.
