CryEngine 3 Trailer Shows off the Engine Behind Crysis 3

Here, have a look at the latest trailer for Crytek’s sexy CryEngine 3.

I’m not gonna pretend to understand all of the techy stuff that goes on behind the scenes in game engines, but I do know one thing - that toad sure is a beautifully ugly bugger. Built from in-game footage of Crysis 3, the trailer's mightily impressive.

CryEngine 3 will power the upcoming Crysis 3, which hits in February next year. Check out the trailer below.

So the Crocodiles replace the Sharks in terms of level boundary?

...I'd be ok with that.

Very nice. Too bad they have to launch this on outdated consoles... Of course it will only look that good on the PC. I love my Xbox 360, but it's time for a new Xbox already!

Super excited for Crysis 3. The first two games are awesome. The graphics this engine produces are just crazy. Cant wait to see what the next Xbox can do.

That does look rather amazing. And that's coming from someone who's admittedly somewhat of a Philistine when it comes to graphics :P

Very nice engine, yet I think Crisis 2 was probably the most boring game I have played imo. It looked pretty, but the repetitiveness of it was just silly.

Obviously this was uploaded with PC game footage and won't look half as good on the Xbox. Crysis 1 and 2's graphics never held up before on the Xbox, so all it really has going for it is a repetitive modern FPS theme. Gonna pass on this.

I dont give a shit about stuff like this because i'm more interested on the gameplay side. I'd rather play an 8-bit game thats enjoyable, than a HD game that sucks

Yes while the graphics are nice, I think its more like frosting on a cake... The game play is more important and should be prioritized over visual graphics.

Honestly looking at all the tech demo's for the "next gen" I'm not all that impressed. Gear of War 3 does not look much worse then this.

Crysis was and still is an awesome game, then Crysis 2 came and well honest, and just my opinion it looks great and all but i missed all the the bits the first one had, they included MP and thats all fun and stuff but it not makes up if the story is weak. Fact is and this not just goes for this game, graphics not save a game if the gameplay is weak or the story is non- existing.
And to above its not uncommon they use PC gameplay in the first few trailers and make ppl believe its actualy console gameplay. Let us not forget PC,s ofcourse are more powerfull atm so no one can,t compare those graphics with anything what we have on the consoles. This might change somewhat with the next gen consoles. But in the future We prob always will have less powerfull graphics on our consoles simply because the graphics chips brands pump out new graphic cards on a regular basis. But i not mind as said to ge me into a game its not just graphics, gameplay and story also play a great deal.

Drop the lens flares, and we're good. Leave them for that hack J.J. Abrams, to jack all over his movies for no reason at all.

Impressive work ! They should stick to creating engines.

Their f2p business model will most likely fail and to be honest, Crysis 2 wasn't very exciting, gameplay wise.
Additionally, the ever present lag in multiplayer didn't show much after-sales commitment, I don't see it getting any better in a f2p game where a great deal of gamers won't be spending a penny after playing it for x amount of time or content, that probably would have bought it in a standard retail model.

Crytek will be the first to realise that appealing to cheap gamers won't fuel a business.

Who do they think they are fooling? Everyone knows that footage was from a pc that would make NASA jealous.

Just show us console footage; if the game looks as good as they say it will on consoles then everyone would be amazed. We see a great looking game and pc gamers will know that it will look even better on their machines.

@2 Removing half the game sounds like a great way to "add more game". Crysis multiplayer is actually good, aside from lag issues.

Umm Consoles are better than PCs..Haha "come at me nerd rage!!!"

OT: Good looking video, this is why i have a 65'inch Plasma and surround sound to enjoy the stunning visuals and sounds that these new gaming engines are bringing to us, very impressive indeed, as the frog said, "ridurp".
