Can you Change the Time of Day in Far Cry 6?

No, you cannot change the time of day from day to night time in Far Cry 6. While other games like The Witcher and AC Valhalla have the option of making your character meditate to move time ahead and shift from night to day and vice versa, there’s nothing like this in the game.

I tried various things to pass time from day to night in Far Cry 6:

  • Fast traveling from one part of the map to another.
  • Reloading a checkpoint.
  • Checked if I could sleep in the bed in the Camp.
  • Quitting to the main menu from the save file I was using, opening up another save file, closing it and heading back to the original save file.

None of these attempts worked, so the answer is that no, you cannot pass time in Far Cry 6. It does give players a more realistic and immersive experience, so I am okay with this feature not being available. If you really want to ensure that you do a particular mission during a certain time of the day, simply explore areas in the open world to spend some time until it’s day/night. You can get collect some resources, do fishing, and ‘change the time of day’. And then, you can start your mission from there. There’s a lot to do once you get into the game, so you won’t be wasting any time while you are at it.
