Crysis: Warhead anunciado
O site oficial de Crysis foi tomado por uma imagem (veja abaixo) significando o primeiro teaser da nova versão do jogo da Crytek, Crysis: Warhead.
Crysis, um dos títulos de maior impacto para PC dos últimos tempos, foi lançado em Novembro de 2007. Um verdadeiro balde de água fria até mesmo para os computadores de ponta da época, o jogo foi assolado pela pirataria e não vendeu tanto se comparado a Call of Duty 4, lançado na mesmo época e que hoje atinge 10 milhões de cópias vendidas.
A própria Crytek anunciou que o seu jogo de tiro em primeira pessoa seria uma trilogia, e aí está o anúncio do mais novo título da série! Porém, o pouco que se sabe sobre o novo título é apenas essa imagem. Nada foi dito se o Warhead será uma expansão stand-alone ou não.
Há algum tempo, várias suposições rolavam pela internet à respeito do nome da continuação de Crysis. Entre os supostos títulos estavam: Crysis Wars, Crysis Annihilation, World in Crysis e Crysis Warhead.
O que podemos esperar de Crysis: Warhead? Mais um pesadelo para os computadores de hoje? Ou algo realmente bem elaborado?

EA AND CRYTEK ANNOUNCE DEVELOPMENT OF CRYSIS WARHEAD
Jun 05, 2008
The Next Installment of One of the Highest Rated Games of 2007 Blasts its way onto PCs this Fall
Maximum freedom, maximum explosions and maximum Psycho! Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) and award-winning independent studio Crytek today announced Crysis Warhead® – the parallel story to Crysis, one of the most critically-acclaimed first person shooters and PC games of 2007. Shipping exclusively for the PC this fall, Crysis Warhead is the first title to be developed at Crytek´s Budapest studio, and is built on a new, enhanced and optimized version of Crytek’s CryENGINE® 2 technology.
“We were very pleased with the reception of Crysis from both gamers and media after our launch last year,” said Cevat Yerli, CEO and President of Crytek. “That being said, one of the key principles of our studio is to always raise the bar. With Warhead, we are focusing on refining our storytelling and game performance, while also delivering more of the visually stunning graphics and immersive, free-roaming gameplay everyone loved in Crysis.”
“The best result of a partnership that we can ask for in the EA Partners program is when a world class independent studio like Crytek chooses to continue to work with us,” said David DeMartini, Vice President and Global General Manager, EA Partners. “Crysis was an amazing game and is going to be a blockbuster franchise. We could not be more excited to be working with Crytek to launch another hit with Crysis Warhead this year.”
In Crysis Warhead, players will don the Nanosuit of Sergeant Sykes, also known as ‘Psycho’, one of the most memorable characters from Crysis. More brash and aggressive than his Delta Force squadmate Nomad, players will experience Psycho’s parallel story during the events of the original game, finding that life on the other side of the island is even more intense and explosive than they ever could have imagined. Luckily, Psycho’s Nanosuit is just as capable and he’s equipped with an even bigger arsenal of fully customizable weapons and new vehicles, giving players access to the tools they need to dominate any situation. Aside from this new, exciting single player campaign, Crysis Warhead will also feature new multiplayer content. Stay tuned for more details this summer.
Crysis Warhead has not yet been rated by the ESRB or PEGI. For more information about the game, please visit www.crysisthegame.com.

Podemos notar uma coisa interessante, Crysis: Warhead não virá com suporte à nova API DirectX 10.1, seria esse mais um sinal de que a indústria achou a API “desnecessária”? Ah sim, também devemos levar em conta que estes são os requisitos mínimos, então você certamente não vai rodar o jogo no máximo com uma 6800GT…
