The accompanying video draws on the nanotechnology at the heart of the Crysis series, but suggests a pretty moody approach, with a grey, washed out look at crumbling buildings as well as what appears to be a damaging solar flare, potentially pointing to a somewhat post-apocalyptic approach. The teaser trailer ended with a simple number 4, confirming the next installment in the series.
Earlier today, as spotted by Eurogamer (opens in new tab), an image posted by Crytek_Official on Chinese social media site BiliBili (opens in new tab). The post read that “the ‘Crysis 4′ project is confirmed, opening a new nano battlefield,” and featured a slightly damaged version of the series’ nanosuit helmet lying on some rocky ground.
The last mainline Crysis game, Crysis 3, released in 2013, but developer Crytek has been releasing remastered versions of the entire trilogy over the past couple of years. That didn’t necessarily mean anything new was on the horizon, but certainly sparked speculation on that front.
Today’s trailer reveals very little about the project, and there’s also little to suggest that the game is anything other than the early stages of development. With that in mind, we’re unlikely to see any more from Crytek 4 for the foreseeable future.
