It's always something I wondered. As of this year they have over 600 employees scattered around the world over 7 studios and yet the only games they have released in the past 4 years are:

Of course they also develop the CryEngine. I guess they probably make some money by licensing the engine but very few high profile games use it.

Also they have a couple of projects they're currently working on (Homefront 2, Ryse and Warface).

Is it Germany that's giving huge subsidies to Crytek? Is it that Crytek is currently bleeding but living on promises? Or is it simply that the Crysis series alone brings all the money?

What do you think?

I think they do some stuff for the military, but I'm not gonna look it up

crysis and crytek

That sounds fishy..

Child trafficking.

I found the military thing:

But still..

Sacrifice children to the graphics gods.

They sell popcorn to vgchartz readers.

They get 25 cents everytime someone mentions Crysis' graphics, so they're billionaires.
