Op sociale media is het officiële Crysis account de laatste dagen bezig met het teasen van een nieuwe aankondiging. Nu weten we wat het precies is.

De website van Crytek heeft namelijk Crysis Remastered gelekt. Op de cookie-pagina kan je de broncode van de website inspecteren en daar blijkt de bovenstaande artwork embedded te zijn. Crysis Remastered is dus in ontwikkeling met verbeterde graphics, gloednieuwe textures, maakt gebruik van CryEngine’s native hardware en API en ondersteund ook Ray Tracing op de PC.

UPDATE: Crytek heeft Crysis Remastered officieel aangekondigd met de onderstaande verklaring en onthullingstrailer. De game zal in de zomer verschijnen voor de PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One en zelfs de Nintendo Switch.

The classic first person shooter is back with the action-packed gameplay, sandbox world, and thrilling epic battles players loved the first time around—with remastered graphics and optimizations for a new generation of hardware co-developed on CRYENGINE with Saber Interactive. Starting this summer, Crysis Remastered will be available for PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and for Nintendo Switch.

Crysis Remastered will focus on the original game’s single-player campaigns and is slated to contain high-quality textures and improved art assets, an HD texture pack, temporal anti-aliasing, SSDO, SVOGI, state-of-the-art depth fields, new light settings, motion blur, and parallax occlusion mapping, particle effects will also be added where applicable. Further additions such as volumetric fog and shafts of light, software-based ray tracing, and screen space reflections provide the game with a major visual upgrade.

In Crysis 1, what begins as a simple rescue mission becomes the battleground of a new war as alien invaders swarm over a North Korean island chain. Armed with a powerful Nanosuit, players can become invisible to stalk enemy patrols, or boost strength to lay waste to vehicles. The Nanosuit’s speed, strength, armor, and cloaking allow creative solutions for every kind of fight, while a huge arsenal of modular weaponry provides unprecedented control over play style. In the ever-changing environment, adapt tactics and gear to dominate your enemies, in an enormous sandbox world.
