Confirmed: Crysis Remastered with ray tracing

The rumors about a remastered version of Crysis were true. Crytek announced via the Crysis Twitter account that they're working on Crysis Remastered for the PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. Crysis launched in 2007 and was the most demanding game of its time. The remastered version promises higher-quality textures and the adoption of the latest graphics features, including real-time ray tracing.

Crysis Remastered will focus on the original game’s single-player campaigns and is slated to contain high-quality textures and improved art assets, an HD texture pack, temporal anti-aliasing, SSDO, SVOGI, state-of-the-art depth fields, new light settings, motion blur, and parallax occlusion mapping, particle effects will also be added where applicable. Further additions such as volumetric fog and shafts of light, software-based ray tracing, and screen space reflections provide the game with a major visual upgrade.

“We are excited to be working on the Crysis franchise again, and to bring all the Crysis fans a remaster worthy of their passion for the game,” said Crytek CEO Avni Yerli. “It’s an exciting opportunity to be able to bring Crysis back to PCs and current consoles – even Nintendo Switch! – so that a whole new generation of players can experience the thrill of a battle in the Nanosuit.”

Crysis Remastered is expected to be out this Summer.
