CRYTEK: CRYSIS 3 ENGINE PRESENTATION

On Crysis 3 Community Day, Sean Tracy decided to show us a presentation of the CryENGINE 3 that you can also find in the upcoming game Crysis 3.

Sean showed us some things we have already seen at E3, such as the Canyon level, which shows one of the new particle systems (particle shading and lighting). The new particle system makes the game look fantastic, with vibrant colors to paint the world you are playing in.
