In Far Cry 6, amigos are animal companions who can assist you in combat and stealth scenarios. They are similar to companions from previous Far Cry games. The main difference in Far Cry 6 is that their name has been changed to Amigos. Each Amigo serves a distinct purpose, and they can all be upgraded with special skills that make them even more helpful both in and out of combat.
There is a total of seven amigos for hire in Far Cry 6. Five of the seven are available in-game. However, two of them are included in the season pass (K-9000 and Champagne). This guide’ll review how you can unlock every Amigo. Additionally, we’ll also cover their skills and how to befriend them.
