Release Date: Fourth Quarter, 2010

The second in a series of cutting-edge shooter experiences Crytek is a showcase title for the CryENGINE 3 technology. Though we’ve seen the new Nanosuit and the tech trailer from GDC, Crytek has been keeping its latest project under wraps for a while. That all changed this week in New York as Cevat Yerli and the team from Crytek invaded New York to show off a full demo of Crysis 2 in action. Though the demo was shown on the Xbox 360, the game will also be released on PC and PS3 this holiday season. In addition to getting to see the game for ourselves, we also had the chance to talk with Cevat and the game’s writer Richard Morgan, bonafide science fiction author, about the new direction for Crysis 2.

As the nanosuit-clad soldier stands amid the ruined rubble of Manhattan, choppers fly by overhead. Aliens lurking in the shells of demolished buildings launch an attack on the choppers and, predictably, all hell breaks loose. Enter the player to kick some serious alien butt.
