    Crytek CEO predicts death of free game demos

    Posted on Monday, April 19 2010 @ 01:05:40 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck


    Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli defends EA's new premium downloadable content strategy, and predicts free game demos will become a thing of the past.
    In an interview with Develop, Crytek’s co-founder Cevat Yerli said he wasn’t sure that a demo of Crysis 2 was going to be released. He also said demos are "a luxury” that becomes “prohibitively expensive” for game studios to make.

    He said: “A free demo is a luxury we have in the game industry that we don’t have in other industries such as film. Because we’ve had this free luxury for so long, now there are plans to change this people are complaining about it. The reality is that we might not see any free game demos in the long term.”
