PETA on Far Cry 6's cockfighting feature

PETA Latino has now released an official statement against Far Cry 6’s cockfighting feature. The feature offers a Mortal Kombat style fight against battle roosters. PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) Latino senior manager Alicia Aguayo issued a statement about the game and said that creating such a game mode is a far cry from real innovation,” Here is the full statement released on PETA.org official website. Apart from the official statement, here is also a full list of Far Cry 6 PC requirements that are required to be followed for the game to run seamlessly. 

“Turning a horrific blood sport like cockfighting into a Mortal Kombat–style video game match is a far cry from real innovation, as today’s society is strongly opposed to forcing animals to fight to the death. Roosters used in cockfights are fitted with sharp spurs that tear through flesh and bone, causing agonizing and fatal injuries. PETA Latino urges Ubisoft to replace this reprehensible minigame with one that doesn’t glorify cruelty.”
