Far Cry 5: Arcade Brunch Live Event Guide

It’s Tuesday, which means a new Live Event is available in Far Cry 5! This week’s challenge, Arcade Brunch, takes players away from Hope County and into the Far Cry Arcade mode. To help you earn all available rewards efficiently, we’ve put together this complete guide.

Arcade Brunch Live Event Progression

This week’s Live Event is straightforward—you need to play Featured or Top Rated maps in Far Cry Arcade for a set amount of time. Below are the progression requirements and rewards:

Personal Progression

• 20 minutes of playtime = 50 Silver Bars
• 40 minutes of playtime = 1887 “Arcade West” Shotgun

Community Progression (PC)

• 1 million minutes of playtime = 50 Silver Bars
• 2 million minutes of playtime = Arcade Brunch Shirt

Event Instructions:

“Infinite maps, infinite fun! Visit Far Cry Arcade and check out the latest Featured or Top Rated maps. Playtime is in minutes.”

What This Means:

To complete the event, you must play at least 40 minutes in Featured or Top Rated maps in the Arcade mode.

How to Complete the Arcade Brunch Live Event Quickly

Step 1: Accessing Arcade Mode

You can enter Arcade Mode in Far Cry 5 through two main methods:

1. Via Arcade Machines in the Open World
   • Look for Arcade Machines scattered around Hope County (often found in bars and outposts).
   • Interact with one to enter Far Cry Arcade.
2. Via the Online Menu
   • Open the game menu and go to the Online tab.
   • Select the Arcade tile to enter.

Step 2: Choosing the Right Maps

• Only Featured or Top Rated maps count toward your progress.
• Stick to maps with shorter match times to maximize playtime efficiently.
• If available, play deathmatch or elimination modes that let you stay in the match longer.

Step 3: Track Your Progress

• Progress is tracked in real-time, so check the Live Events tab in the menu to see your minutes played.

How to Claim Arcade Brunch Live Event Rewards

Once you’ve completed 40 minutes of playtime, your personal rewards will be available. If the community also reaches the required milestones, those rewards will be unlocked too.

Here’s how to claim your loot:

• Silver Bars: Open the Live Events Progression screen from the Online menu.
• 1887 “Arcade West” Shotgun: Visit any Weapons Shop and check the Shotguns tab.
• Arcade Brunch Shirt (Community Reward): Go to Character Customization under the Tops section.

The Arcade Brunch Live Event is one of the easier events in Far Cry 5 since it only requires playing rather than completing specific objectives. Simply queue up on Featured/Top Rated maps and rack up your minutes to unlock Silver, a new shotgun, and an exclusive shirt.
