As we promised, the 1.5 patch for Crysis Wars has just been released. We have a local download mirror set up for both the 1.5 Crysis Wars patch and the SDK update.
You can follow our previous 1.5 coverage right here. In case you missed it, there is a nice fly through of the new Ruins map that can be found after the break.
The full list of changes and the previously released Ruins shots are also up after the break.<!--more-->
