Crysis Remastered gets a new release date and is an Epic Games Store exclusive on PC

New tech trailer for the delayed game also released

Crytek has announced a Crysis Remastered release date of September 18 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC exclusively via the Epic Games Store.

The title will be available digitally priced at $29.99/£26.99/€29.99.

To coincide with the release date announcement, Crytek released the tech preview trailer above, showcasing new lighting, updated assets, ray traced reflections and 8K textures.

“For the first time a Crytek game will feature ray tracing on Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 Pro powered by CRYENGINE’s proprietary software based ray tracing solution,” the studio said. “The PC version will additionally support hardware-based ray tracing on Nvidia RTX GPUs.”

Co-developed by Crytek and Saber Interactive, the game was originally due to release for PS4, Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch in July.

While the Switch version did release on July 23, the other versions were delayed following a negative reaction to a leaked video and screenshots.

“Your passion for the Crysis franchise deserves and undeniably high-quality game, and we are committed to delivering just that,” Crytek said at the time.

“To ensure that we meet that commitment, we will need to delay the launch date (all platforms) and trailer premiere by a few weeks.”

Crytek went on to claim that the extra time until release would allow it “to get Crysis Remastered up to the PC – and console-breaking standard you’ve come to expect from Crysis games.

“We hope you understand what we’re up to – and that you stay with us while we take the time to make a few more improvements,” it said.

According to Crytek, Crysis Remastered will feature high-quality textures and improved art assets, including an HD texture pack, temporal anti-aliasing, new light settings, motion blur and more.
