Electronic Arts have sent along a new trailer from Crysis: Warhead - the forthcoming (standalone) expansion to the shooter that brought gaming rigs to their knees late last year.

"We think Crysis Warhead is going to offer a tremendous experience to a wide range of gamers," said Cevat Yerli, CEO and President of Crytek. "Fans of Crysis are going to enjoy more of the open-ended gameplay, cutting-edge visuals and huge, epic battles from the first game, while also finally finding out what kind of havoc Psycho was wreaking on the other side of the island.

At the same time, we designed Warhead to be more accessible for gamers new to the Crysis franchise. It is a game with a story that can stand on its own, it has been optimized to run better on a wider range of PCs, and we are introducing Crysis Wars, a tailor-made experience for multiplayer gamers within the Crysis universe – all at a great value."

This 90 second clip's nothing jaw-droppingly special, but it does show off a few explosive scenes from the game. Check it out right here on AusGamers.
