While we had initially believed that Crytek's very pretty looking CryENGINE 3 technology would just "work" with the PlayStation 4, the developer of the Crysis series has officially confirmed that this is exactly the case.
With a growing number of licensing partners around the globe, Crytek’s CryENGINE 3 is being used to develop a diverse range of titles that reach millions of players. The engine is the first all-in-one development solution that provides multi-award winning graphics, and all necessary systems and tools, out of the box.
“Our CryENGINE technology has always provided head-turning results across platforms,” said Carl Jones, Director of Global Business Development at Crytek. “By supporting developers as they build for the future on PlayStation 4, we are cementing our position at the forefront of the industry and helping others to create the best games they can in this exciting period of transition.”
The confirmation for PlayStation 4 support has now indicated that Crytek's new engine will now work for all three new consoles as we move into the next-generation of gaming. For those anxious to get their hands dirty with the CryENGINE 3, you can do so by getting the
latest SDK free of charge for personal development.
