Crysis Remastered has been delayed following a negative response to leaked media

Crytek has delayed its Crysis remaster following a negative reaction to leaked assets this week.

Screenshots and video of Crysis Remastered appeared online this week and attracted criticism from both the media and fans.

According to retail listings, the shooter was set for release later this month. However, in a statement published on Wednesday co-developer Crytek confirmed it had delayed Crysis for further polish.

“Your passion for the Crysis franchise deserves and undeniably high-quality game, and we are committed to delivering just that,” the company wrote in a statement.

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

It added: “You might be aware of the leak yesterday, and we want you to know: we’ve seen all the reactions – the good and the bad – and we’re listening.”

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.

Crysis Remastered will release for Xbox One, PC, Nintendo Switch and PS4, co-developed by Saber Interactive, the studio responsible for The Witcher 3’s Switch port.

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.

On Thursday Crytek released the first screenshots of the Nintendo Switch version, which you can see below:
