Crysis is Gold!

The Countdown Ends 11.16.07

The year’s biggest PC game has just gotten that much closer to hitting store
shelves. Crysis, Crytek’s next-generation first person shooter for the PC has
gone gold and will be on store shelves everywhere November 16, 2007.

“We are extremely proud of what we
have been able to accomplish with Crysis,” said Cevat Yerli, CEO of Crytek. “We
wanted to push the boundaries both visually and with open-ended, non-linear
gameplay and we believe the end result delivers that vision.”

The current single player demo,
available in DX10 and DX9, has given gamers their first taste of the immersive,
non-linear Crysis experience. Highlighted by Crytek’s open-ended level design
and the game’s Nanosuit gameplay mechanic, which challenges gamers to analyze
and approach every individual encounter before acting, Crysis delivers a
completely new and refreshing FPS gameplay experience.

Of course, the single player demo
also features the stunning, award-winning graphics powered by Crytek’s
revolutionary CryENGINE 2. Assistance from key partners such as NVIDIA, Intel
and Microsoft have helped make Crysis one of the most anticipated PC games of
all time.

“Crytek and EA are rewarding PC
gamers with the world’s most technologically advanced video game,” said Roy
Taylor, vice president of content at NVIDIA. “Our programmers are intensely
proud to have helped Crytek push the boundaries of interactivity and immersion.
The game was developed and tested on NVIDIA, and we recommend GeForce
8800-Series graphics cards for the best experience.”
