We finally have a new release date revealed for Crysis Remastered on the PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. That new release date is September 18 for all three platforms. This date comes after the game was delayed for these platforms back in July to add in some additional "polish." Since such a time, the Nintendo Switch version of Crysis Remastered was released.
At release on September 18, the game will be purchasable for $29.99 (USD). You will be able to purchase it digitally from the PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, and on PC via the Epic Games Store. Oh yeah, there's the catch.
Crysis Remastered is being co-developed between Crytek and Saber Interactive. The update includes several visual enhancements such as support for up to 8K texture resolutions, HDR support, temporal AA, screen space directional occlusions (SSDO), global illumination (SVOGI), enhanced depth of field, new light settings, motion blur, parallax occlusion mapping, screen space reflections and shadows (SSR and SSS), new and updated particle effects, "and more."
Crysis Remastered will also reportedly include ray tracing on both Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 Pro. You read that correctly. It will use CRYENGINE's proprietary software-based ray tracing. The PC version will support hardware-based ray tracing on Nvidia RTX GPUs. In addition RTX cards on PC will support DLSS for the game.
In Crysis Remastered, what begins as a simple rescue mission becomes the battleground of a new war against alien invaders. Armed with a powerful Nanosuit, players can become invisible to stalk enemy patrols, or boost their strength to lay waste to vehicles. The Nanosuit’s speed, strength, armor, and cloaking allow creative solutions for every kind of fight, while a huge arsenal of modular weaponry provides unprecedented control over your play style. Adapt your tactics and gear to dominate your enemies in this enormous sandbox world.
