Far Cry series are among the most popular first-person adventure shooters. The game gained popularity with the third installment of the series and afterward only grew bigger and bigger. Like the previous entries of the series, Far Cry 6 provides the liberty of gameplay choice, that players can decide to be discreet and silent or loud and bombastic. If you have played the previous games, you know rocks are used to distract enemies in the game. If you are wondering whether you can throw a rock in Far Cry 6 or not, you’ve come to the right place.
How To Throw Rocks in Far Cry 6
One of the best things about the Far Cry series is that you are at liberty to choose how to play the game. If you want to be more stealthy, there are exclusive mechanics that will help you with that style, and if you want to be loud, the situation is the same. While Far Cry 6 itself wasn’t the best game of the series and lacked innovation in many ways, at least it saved some of the core gameplay mechanics of the game.
In case Far Cry 6 isn’t your first experience of the series, then you are familiar with the mechanism of throwing rocks in the game. The reason you want to use rocks is to distract enemies to move from one place to another and then either proceed with the mission or take them out silently without the guards noticing. You can also use Chicarron to distract or kill enemies if you want to as well.
For this reason, you might wonder why you can’t find the option of throwing rocks in the game. That is because you can’t actually throw rocks in Far Cry 6, and unfortunately, that option is no longer available in the main game. Instead, you can use baseballs to distract enemies and have a similar usage to rocks. Unlike rocks, you don’t have access to them from the beginning, however.

In order to get baseballs, you must first complete the Supremacy mission to unlock the Supremo backpack. Then you have to upgrade your backpack, and afterward, you will unlock the option of using a baseball. Although the case for the DLCs of the game, like Lost Between Worlds, is different. In the DLCs, you actually have the option of throwing rocks, and therefore no need to upgrade your backpack.
Far Cry 6 is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
