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.

Really good news! Hope this engine is lincesed a lot.

Really the release makes it sound more of a cloud based service then an actual new engine. They probably are using their new scalable engine that was recently released and do updates on that, as long as the developer stays current with the fees they will always have the latest update of the engine to use. The begining of the release does make it sound like they were announcing a new engine but this is the key part of press release.

Naming the service Cryengine makes it a little ambigious. (ie Wii/WiiU naming convension problems.)

I like how there aren't many posts on this matter. Wonder why? :)

I can't haz Nintendo bashing.

Nice to see the WiiU getting some love.

If you watch the demo you can see the city towards the end and evaporating puddle. I believe that is from Homefront 2. I can't wait to play that game.

Does anyone actually know what this is?

What games have used CryEngine so far? Other than Crysis of course.
