Many thought that the
Crysis Remastered Trailer that
leaked
yesterday wasn't legitimate, as it wasn't up to expectations for the upcoming
first-person shooter rework. Now
a tweet
from Crytek reveals that the trailer was real, and the negative reaction
makes them recognize there is still work to be done to bring this up to snuff.
They announce that they are delaying the game's release in order to work on it
further. Here's their post on the topic:
As you know Crysis Remastered
will be coming to the world this year - and at the same time Crisis IP will
debut on Nintendo Switch!
Your passion for the Crysis franchise deserves an undeniably high-quality game,
and we are committed to delivering just that. To ensure that we meet that
commitment, we need to delay the launch date (all platforms) and trailer
premiere by a few weeks. Because they already started, pre-orders for Switch
will stay open, but pre-orders for all other platforms will be delayed as well.
The features you're looking forward to are already set, but we want to take the
time on polishing the game. 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! We're still working on a number of things in the game, as well
as the storefront. Please keep the love coming, and rest assure, you'll have the
game you love shortly!
This extra time until release will allow us 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 too - and that you stay with us while we take the
time to make a few more improvements. Stay tuned, and we'll have that game, in
your hands as soon as we possibly can.
We'll keep you updated on our progress, so please hang in there, and check back
here for updates!
