Companions are nothing new to the Far Cry series, but Far Cry 6 has replaced them with Amigos, animal companions that can follow you around and help you take down Anton Castillo’s forces. Each Amigo serves a unique purpose, and each of them can be upgraded with special abilities that make them even more useful both in and out of combat. From the lovable Chorizo to the deadly Guapo, there’s an Amigo out there for everyone. Here are all 7 Amigos in Far Cry 6 and how to get them.
