PC Gamer put up a note earlier today stating that their review of Far Cry 4 has been delayed - it's because they aren't getting the review code until Tuesday, the day the game releases.

Ubisoft's statement:
"The reason why we did not provide review code until now is that there is a title update which won’t be available before Monday prior to launch. However, we will officially communicate on the title update prior the release of the game so consumers are aware."
What this sounds like to me is that there could be a dearth of information about the PC version of Far Cry 4 until Wednesday or Thursday since it's going to take reviewers some time to download and start playing the game. I get that Ubisoft doesn't want reviews based on the game without the day one patch, but still...after Watch Dogs and Unity, I hope not too many people preordered the game for PC.
So the review embargo is technically up, but it doesn't matter because no one is able to even play the PC version to review it anyway. Great.
