Crytek Begins Crafting Something New

cryjungle.jpgNow that Crytek has gotten their CryENGINE 2.0 middleware to the point where it can be used across multiple platforms and genres, it's time for them to create an original IP game of their own. The smoke stacks at their Kiev studio have sprung to life and truckloads of raw code are being delivered hourly, ready to be crafted be expert developers into something all-new and all-different.

"Now that our CryENGINE 2 middleware has reached the point of maturity where it can be used to support both different types and styles of games, and run on multiple platforms, we thought it was the optimum time to begin work on a new project based on our own new and original intellectual property, and elevate the Kiev operation to full studio status," revealed Faruk Yerli, MD of Crytek.

Full studio status! "Put on your Sunday best, boys! We're on Full Studio status!"

No information is available about this mysterious original IP, but I'm really, really hoping for something with a jungle theme. Just not enough jungle-themed games these day. Maybe Crytek can change all that.
