Far Cry 6: All rooster locations

Jesse Lennox
By

Open-world games are known for their side activities. Even the Far Cry games have dabbled in some traditional diversions, such as treasure hunts, races, hunting, and fishing, to name a few. Far Cry 6 has many of these as well, but one extra mode stands out as the most unique for not only this series, but in gaming as a whole. The controversial “sport” of cockfighting makes an appearance as an activity you can participate in to earn some extra money once you reach Montero Farm in Madrugada.

You’re not just a spectator betting on a random outcome in Far Cry 6‘s cockfighting mini-game, however. Instead, the game puts you in control of your rooster of choice in a surprisingly fun and competent little fighting-game-style battle. Before you can enter the ring, though, you will need a champion to fight on your behalf. Special roosters are waiting all around Yara for you to find and test out in the ring. There are a total of 13 to find, with six more you can get as part of Ubisoft rewards, with their own unique names. We’ve scouted out all the best feathery fighters in Far Cry 6. Here are all the rooster locations to test out in the ring and earn yourself the Recrooster trophy and achievement.

El Rato

The cleverly named El Rato should be the first rooster you come across in Far Cry 6. As soon as you find the cockfighting ring at Montero Farm, you can add this rooster to your roster right away. Just beside the actual ring is the crate right by the stands and large cages. Pick him up to get started with this odd mini-game.

In the Madrugada region, there’s a mountain to the northeast of the Cortina Weather Station, just across the river. Climb to the summit and find a zipline that can take you across to a little plateau someone looks like they’ve been camping out on. The box with El Aguila is near the edge of the cliff adorned with a rooster.

El Dorado

Finding El Dorado won’t take you years, but it does have to wait until you’ve at least completed the Yaran Story mission titled Spur of the Moment, which you can start by talking to one of the characters at the cockfighting ring itself. This mission will take you to an underground bunker, where you can find this rooster behind a butcher’s table. Rescue him so he can fight another day.

Acero

From Verdera in Lozania, go northeast until you spot a cart that sells ice cream. From there, go left and look for a shack with a green tarp on top. Just in front of this building is the box holding Acero.

Papacito

Moving over to the Valle De Oro region we have Papacito. This rambunctious rooster is in an appropriate spot for an animal at least, the Castillo National Zoo in the northern part of Balacera. You can grab him while in the mission Break the Chains you get from Talia, but are free to go there before or after as well. There’s a big green wall you need to climb at the northeast end of the zoo that leads to a bunch of chickens roaming around. Our new friend Papacito is boarded up in a box on top of one of the chicken cages under an awning.

El Pico

El Pico has a pretty nice thing going on at a farm to the south of the Botanical Gardens of Yara. This lovely spot is in Noventarmas, just west of the Cielo Gardens, and is right by the primary road and up a small hill. You’ll know it by the blue house. Head around back to find El Pico right past the gate.

La Muerte Negra

In the Cruz Del Salvador area is the town of Segunda. On the far west end of this town, beyond the big blue and orange tower, is a small farm. La Muerte Negra is boxed up on the south side of the farm next to the metal fence and small cage.

El Fenix

Rising from the ashes, El Fenix will be reborn when you head to the east coast of Valle De Oro and enter Muerte Point. On the south side of Orquidea Villa, which is on the western side of Muerte Point, is a little farm with some pigs out front in a pen. You’re not after the hogs, though, so ignore them and enter the small side building near where the car is parked to free El Fenix.

Hermoso

Traveling out to the El Este region, we need to rescue Hermoso from the Bonilla Farm located to the west end of the Savannah fields in Sierra Perdida. There are a series of pens and coops here to look through, but Hermoso is kept in the one labeled #1.

La Bala de Plata

This lovely rooster is also chilling on a farm in Sierra Perdida, this time with the Alvarez Farm by the Vacia Coast. You will be taken right to this spot as part of the Yaran Story Man’s Best Enemy. On the road is a trailer unattached to any car with La Bala de Plata hanging out in the back.

El Huevo

El Huevo needs to be sprung out of La Joya Local PDP Offices in La Joya, which is just southwest of Mirador Cape. You will need to head inside, get up to the second floor either from the ground or via the roof, and bust your new buddy out.

El Gallo Magnifico

El Gallo Magnifico is very easy to get, and can’t be missed once you start the Everything to Lose Yaran Story mission, which is started by speaking to Petra. As part of this quest, you will be taken to the Arrese Farm within the Fernando Valley where Arrese himself will give you El Gallo Magnifico to take to safety. He’s kept in a hut near the house that’s locked up, but the key is right in the main house. Just don’t tell Arrese what trouble his rooster gets into.

La Bestia Blanca

The last rooster to add to your mini fighting game roster may also be the toughest to get. La Bestia Blanca is kept in Esperanza at the Casas del Lodo Residence, which is on the far west end of the city and on Roja Bay. You can wait to be led to this exact spot and get her by doing the Treasure Hunt called The Last One to Leave, or seek out the light-blue house on the cliff yourself. Either way, enter the house and save La Bestia Blanca from the kitchen.

With all the roosters resting and raring to ravage their rivals, you will unlock the Recrooster trophy and achievement.

All Farbia locations in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown
A character reached out to grab a shard in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown.

Even though the series has never fully embraced the Metroidvania design, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown proves that this franchise was tailor-made for it. The dynamic movement, time abilities, and acrobatic combat, when packaged in a tight, well-designed 2D game, mix like a cold drink in the desert. With that genre shift, you can count on most of the tropes to come along with it, most notably the intricate and intertwining map. Exploration is key to these games, as is backtracking, which means you will frequently reference your map to get your bearings. But until you've uncovered the rooms yourself, each section of the map will remain shrouded in fog. While you could manually fill in each and every corner, finding Farbia in a given zone will instantly reveal everything there is to see on your map. The trick then becomes figuring out where to find her.
Where to find Farbia
There are 10 zones in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, and thus, that many opportunities to find and chat with Farbia and exchange 50 Time Shards to reveal the map. Here's her location in each of them.
The Depths

To reach Farbia in The Depths, you must first unlock the Shadow of the Simurgh ability. With it, take the main elevator down to the bottom level. Use the ability here to create a clone of Sargon on the lift, send it back up, and teleport below it after it rises. At the bottom, you can speak to Farbia and pay for a clear map.

Best cooking recipes in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
Harvesting a fruit in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora.

While it isn't quite a survival game where you're required to eat, foraging for ingredients to cook meals is highly encouraged in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. Sure, you could just eat raw ingredients to make sure you never fully deplete your energy, but you'd be missing out on some very powerful buffs that a well-crafted meal can provide. You obviously will be unfamiliar with basically every ingredient you come across on Pandora, as it's an alien planet after all, and even your character will have no idea what effect mixing up a couple of plants or bits of meat will yield until you try it out. If you didn't come to this planet to play Gordon Ramsey, here's a breakdown of the best recipes you can cook in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora and how to make them.
Best recipes and how to cook them

Cooking is done at any cooking station that you can find at every Na'vi or resistance base. Once you interact with it, you can select two ingredients to mix together and see what meal you come up with. Meals can have one or two buffs depending on if they're a standard or specialty recipe, but they always refill your energy.

All Ancestor Skill locations in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
An Ikran flies towards a ship in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora.

After being raised by humans up until the start of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, your Na'vi has a lot to learn about where they come from and their lost heritage. Part of that is learning how to actually survive and navigate Pandora, but another major aspect is learning new skills. You have your standard five skill trees to invest points into, as well as a set of 12 Ancestor Skills that you can't get by normal means. These skills are far more meaningful when it comes to adding new gameplay options, and can only be obtained by hunting down specific plants to connect with on the map. It's a big world out there, Na'vi, so call your ikran (a dragon-like creature) and we'll guide you through the wilds to the location of every Ancestor Skill.
Where to find all Ancestor Skills
You will get the first Ancestor Skill early on in the game as part of the main story, which unlocks a short double-jump ability. The remaining 11 are completely optional as to whether or not you go out of your way to find them. We recommend waiting until you get your ikran before going after any skills other than the first as the ability to fly will not only make the process infinitely easier, but some skills can't be reached without it.

1. Eject
Eject makes short work of those dangerous RDA soldiers piloting power armor suits by letting you rip them right out of the cockpit. You do have to get close enough to do it, though, so be careful.
2. Drop Impact
Melee attacks are already strong considering you're a giant Na'vi, but you can make them downright deadly with this skill. Any jumping attack you do gets a damage multiplier, up to a maximum of 3, depending on how fast you're running when you melee in the air. As a nice little cherry on top, any nearby enemies also get staggered when you pull off this move.
3. Deeper Connection
Get in touch with your ikran and strengthen your bond, which gives it more stamina for whatever reason.
4. Soft Landing
Falling to your death is a real concern on Pandora. You're constantly climbing trees, mountains, and even floating islands. While it won't save you from a fall from the latter, Soft Landing lets you slide after a long fall to avoid breaking a leg.
