Hankering to revisit Crysis 2 and Crysis 3? (Anyone?) Regardless of whether an audience for the Crysis Remastered Trilogy exists, it’s coming out by hook or crook on 15th October. This includes the original – itself already spruced up, and available on the PlayStation 4 right now – alongside its two sequels. Well, their single player campaigns, at least.
Those of you playing through backwards compatibility on PS5 can expect resolutions up to 4K at 60 frames-per-second, so extra pretty. You’ll be able to pick up the trio of titles for $49.99, or alternatively, grab Crysis 2 Remastered and Crysis 3 Remastered at $29.99 apiece. Let us know if you’re the target audience for this in the comments section below.

I am not the target audience for this.
I had a lot of fun with Crysis 2 and 3 on PS3. But I wouldn't need to replay them, once is enough.
Have them on Steam... those are good enough.
With so many new games I want to play, old ones I already played are not making the list.
Sounds good to me, never really played them much in the past, wouldn't mind getting this though
Not interested. Sonic Colors Ultimate will be my last Remaster. After that I will be focusing on new games and experiences only. ReMAKES however I don't mind as I consider them new and unlike the original game in question.
I will get that trilogy i didn't finish 2 and 3.but will get this trilogy.and play the first one also.word up son
crysis 2 is the only good one. good storymode and multiplayer , wouldve played the multiplayer more if it was 60fps on console. i never played 3 but remember when it came out , it seemed like a flop so i didn't want to waste money on it .
crysis 1 is boring , but i respect the open-world of it .
I had a really crummy pc when these games came out so would be cool to see them running in all their glory on my ps5
No one's buying that.
I'll pick up the Trilogy to play on my PS5 if a physical release is available.
@DTfeartheBEARD Digital only im afraid
I have all of them on my pc including warhead (the best one) and whilst pretty good looking 😝 i found that crouching all the way through the games gave almost infinite cloaking and made sections that were designed to be a challenge incredibly easy..also had crysis on the ps3 and that was a bit of a joke really..fond memories indeed and i dont need to ruin those happy ones..
@nomither6 crysis 3 was more exciting than 2..a lot more action set pieces and the train ride whilst short and on rails was a blast...literally oh and it was far superior online too..you missed out..
I played the first two on PC (built a PC that could manage High settings for the first) but never got around the the third. I might pick this up on sale.
The trajectory of Crytek as a company is spectacular. They started with a tech demo for GeForce cards. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, FarCry came out. And it brought open world gameplay to shooters, as we know it now. Freedom of movement + vehicles + encounters on your own terms. And the amount of content was staggering.
Then Crysis came out. This was a point where gameplay and technologies diverged at the company: technology climbed higher and became better with every game instalment, while the fun parts, i.e. what makes game a game, suffered. Crysis, as a game, was boring when compared to FarCry. But nobody cared; it was the tech masterpiece.
I never played Crysis 2, but haven't heard anything good about it. And Crysis 3 became more a rail shooter, than anything open world stands for. To make it even worse, you spend the latter part of the game in darkness, so you won't even be able to see the technological prowess that is still lurking there somewhere.
And modern Crytek struggles to survive, with delayed salaries and a single ongoing niche game to its name. This is very sad. I wish they made FarCry 2 instead. Not that Ubimination, but the real one. A continuation of the game, that change the genre forever.
I'm partially interested, but do take note that this game does not have native PS5 support. It's just dynamic resolution that has a more stable performance on PS5. So no optimized loading times, ray-tracing, visual upgrades (other than resolution boost) and no DualSense haptic feedback support.
@viktorcode Hunt: Showdown might be a bit more niche but has an incredibly loyal fan base. It’s an amazing game and world they’ve built and much more interesting than it appears at first glance, also a very unique kind of shooter (I don’t know of any other game that plays quite like it).
@Bleachedsmiles lol
Why to pay 50 bucks for a dead game franchise which was not that much popular even at the time of the release? Oh, it's EA, now makes sense as they love to get money one way or another.
@2here2there What are you even talking about? EA has no relationship at all to these remastered games.
These have aged, even with the updated graphics it doesn't tempt me back, even though I did enjoy the games when they first released.
@playstation1995.... 2 and 3 are great, the 3rd one in particular is great fun. Enjoy !
@2here2there well yep they're a business, they exist to make money
The first one is one of the most over rated games ever imo, never played the second but quite enjoyed the third on the 360
I played Crysis 2 once and I thought it was dull. Haven't played the others. Probably never going to.
Played the fist one twice back then, played Crysis Warhead once, only half of the second game and just the beginning of the 3rd one (found it boring).
So... to "sale" with them! ^_^
As a side note: bad move on the publisher's part launching this trilogy in October... Pitting it against the likes of Battlefield 2042, Far Cry 6 and Call of Duty, is not a good idea sales-wise.
I may pick this up in a digital sale later for $20 or cheaper, but looks cool!
Is this where we’re at now remasters of remasters; within a couple of months of each other. New balls please
@2here2there except it’s not EA.
EA published the original trilogy at the time. Crytek owns the IP and is technically an indie studio atm, saber interactive is publishing the trilogy.
EDIT: saber is remastering them, crytek is self publishing them.
If the issues are fixed and doesn't look like a port to the ps5, I may consider it.
Will wait to see how the reviews playout.
