Crysis 2 Is Going To Show NYC Like No One Has Before

The New York City shown in the upcoming Crysis 2 will be unlike any seen before, developer Crytek says.
“I Am Legend and The Day After Tomorrow were unique and both ‘owned’ a version of New York,” president Cevat Yerli explained to Edge.
“Ours, likewise, is in harmony with the Nanosuit. In Crysis we changed that island in ways the player didn’t expect. Expect bigger here. It’ll be a New York City like none in games or cinema.”
“Destruction and scarring of the environment: they’re universal themes that have been around forever. Our take will be unique,” added executive producer Nathan Camarillo.
“It was a large island in Crysis but you weren’t interested in every square inch. There were large expanses, funnels and action spaces, and we’re doing the same with New York. It’s a comparable size.”

I wasn't the biggest fan of Crysis, but never the less I'm still excited to see what Crytek is going to do this time around.

  1. I didn't really enjoy Crysis so I at least hope some great mods will come out for this one. A big city in CryEngine... :x

  2. The procedural building interior stuff they're talking about for this game is something I've been dreaming about seeing in a game since, jeez...at least GTA3. Big open cities are great, but always being blocked from going in all but a couple buildings was always such an immersion-killer. If they can pull this off, it has the potential to be amazing.

  3. Great graphics to be seen, that's for sure.
