The XM29 Objective Individual Combat Weapon (OICW) is an assault rifle solely making an appearance in Far Cry.

The OICW is an open terrain warfare weapon with an integrated power scope and high explosive grenade launcher. Compared to the G36, its scope is non-adjustable, offering x3 magnification, a compromise over the AG36's dual x2/x4 magnification settings. The weapon's capability for sniping at long range like the AW50 and rapid fire at close-mid range like the M4 makes it one of the most versatile firearms in the game. It is best suited to outdoor terrain where it may be the player's best friend.

The OICW features an integrated grenade launcher which is vastly superior to its AG36 counterpart. The launcher can carry up to 5 grenades in a clip at once, each grenade possessing superior range and a flatter firing arc. This makes the OICW good at rapidly dispatching most types of armored targets or enemies behind cover. It additionally holds 40 rounds in its magazine, better than the 30 round clips used by the M4 or G36.
