Frankfurt am Main (Germany) August 21, 2013 – Crytek have ushered in a new era for their state-of-the-art CRYENGINE  technology, with  the launch of the new CRYENGINE; an ever-evolving technology service, with always up to date access to the latest features in CRYENGINE for commercial game licensees. 

CRYENGINE users will also benefit from the coming together of Crytek’s Engine Licensing and Research & Development teams; a move designed to double the level of one-to-one care game licensees can tap into, in essence offering Crytek’s R&D as a service for developers using the new CRYENGINE.

On top of these changes, the new CRYENGINE supports development on current and next generation consoles (Xbox One, PlayStation^®4, and WiiU™), alongside PC, with further platforms to be added in the near future.

In line with the new services, the all-in-one development solution will no longer be identified by version numbers; reflecting the fact that constant updates and upgrades are always being applied to keep CRYENGINE at the forefront of its field....

Yeah.. like we want to read all the PR stuff..

Video!!!!!!!

damn it

anywhoo looks very nice

Crytek's PR department thinks the Wii U is next gen. That's nice I guess.

Well the Cry Engine 3 looks good enough....

But this is probably better....

I just hope that Star Citizen moves to this to make it look even better

All I got out of this was "On top of these changes, the new CRYENGINE supports development on current and next generation consoles (Xbox One, PlayStation®4, and most im-fucking-portantly, the goddamn, motha fuckin', next-gen-ass, fuck all 'da haterz, WiiU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!™)"

Oh great..... more graphic porn, and this coming from a company where the Crytek Director literally said that the graphic is more important then gameplay. I look forward to next gen :/

Hopefully this entices some studios to use this engine instead of the unreal engine. The Cryengine is really good but Crytek don't make good games. Want some good games with it. Besides the first half of the original Crysis.

We all know what that means:

Their main publisher doesnt though.

Their main publisher has an unprecedented partnership with Nintendo ^_^

But seriously, what really matters is that the Wii U can apparently run the engine without issue.  So, if the engine becomes popular among third party developers, that's good for Wii U.
