EA Announces Crysis 3 Release Date

EA announced during its annual investor conference today that it plans to invest up to $80 million in development for games on the next generation console systems in the fiscal year of 2013.  EA also provided investors with a firm release date on Crysis 3, which they say will release in the first quarter of 2013.

The original Crysis first released on the PC, and Crytek thinks that the community is deserves its rewards, especially in the visual department.  "We're definitely pushing the game a lot from a visual standpoint, and for sure there's going to be visual goodies in it that you can only get if you have a super-high-end PC," Crytek says it will offer high-end PC users extra "visual goodies" when it releases next year.  "At the same time, we want to ensure if you don't have a super-high-end PC, the game will still look amazing.  On top of that, we want to make sure the experience is not different from platform to platform," Hojengaard continued.

Set in 2047, Prophet is on a revenge mission after uncovering the truth behind Cell Corporation's motives for building the quarantined Nanodomes. The citizens were told that the giant citywide structures were resurrected to protect the population and to cleanse these metropolises of the remnants of Ceph forces. In reality, the Nanodomes are CELL’s covert attempt at a land and technology grab in their quest for global domination. With Alien Ceph lurking around every corner and human enemies on the attack, nobody is safe in the path of vengeance. Everyone is a target in Prophet’s quest for retribution.
