If you wonder how to start Vaas Insanity DLC in Far Cry 6Β or how to play it, then donβt worry because, throughout the guide below, Iβll tell you what you have to do. Vaas Insanity DLC was released on November 16, 2021; however, playing as Vaas is not an easy job, mainly because you canβt access this Far Cry 6 DLC via the gameβs menu.
Furthermore, even if you purchased the Season Pack, which includes the Vaas Insanity DLC, you may encounter an unusual problem when trying to access it. So, letβs see how we can get you inside Vaasβs mind.
How To Download Vaas Insanity DLC

The first thing youβll need to do is download the FC6 Vaas Insanity DLC; however, make sure you actually own it. It is not a free DLC, so you have to buy it via your consoleβs store or as part of the Season Pass. Once you do that, double-check that the Vaas Insanity DLC is downloaded.
If not, follow these steps (on Xbox):
- Press the central button to return to your consoleβs dashboard (Home)
- Now press the small side button showing three lines (Start) on the Far Cry 6 pictogram
- Select Manage Game And Add-Ons
- Pick Far Cry 6
- Finally, check at the bottom of the list (pictured above) to see if Far Cry 6 DLC Episode 1 Insanity is installed
- If not, select and install it, then restart the game
How To Start DLC Episode 1: Vaas Insanity
Once you return to the game while playing as Dani, travel to one of your camps. For the sake of this guide, weβll use the one in Madrugada, at Montero Farm. While in Daniβs Guerilla Camp, go to the central area where the Foreman is located.
Behind his desk is a rather large house. Head inside through the door on the left side of the Foreman, and youβll see a small TV in the corner (pictured below).

Interact with the TV and select Vaas Insanity DLC to be transferred to Vaasβ mind.
How To Return to Yara
Luckily, returning to Yara while playing Far Cry 6 Vaas Insanity DLC is a lot easier. If, for any reason, you wish to go back to Yara, open the gameβs menu, then select System. From here, simply pick Return to Yara, and youβre done.
Remember that to play Far Cry 6 Vaas Insanity DLC, you must own it or buy it as well as download it; otherwise, youβll receive an error or a screen with the following message: Looks like you already own this. This message appears if Ubisoftβs DLC is purchased but not installed.
