Damn shame. Not the first we've heard of something like this.

Crytek was struggling for a long time now.
And it's not hard to see why. They didn't innovate, they kept old licensing arrangements in place for their engine for too long, while UE was basically free since 2.5. You only needed to pay once you released a product.
As for games, Ryse was a flop, despite being a quality product. And Afaik they only released that vr climbing game since, which was already aimed at a restricted market, and even at that a very obscure niche product, so even if it was a blazing success it wouldn't have pulled them out of the water.
I don't even see why an already struggling developer thought it was a good idea to invest in such a way.
Not that you can't make money off niche markets, but you need a connection to the people interested in the market. And you need more hands on approach for that. Like the train simulator games which is also a niche market, but they are selling dlc after dlc like there is no tomorrow.
Sorry I went on rambling like that but crytek's fate feels closer as I used to know people from their long closed hungarian office who made Crysis: Warhead.
Crysis 3 was not that great. I didn't even finish it. But FarCry, Crysis, Crysis Warhead, and Crysis 2 are the best fps games I've ever played.But I've never enjoyed a Crytek game.
Still disappointed I bought Crysis 3 on release day. Most boring game I ever played, even if it was pretty.
Each to their own, I suppose. The only one of the Crytek games I played was Crysis 2, and I thought it was a horrible game. Very console-like, and the worst part was the trip-line swarm of enemies. Clear out an area of enemies, walk back to the entry area, then take one step to far, and another swarm of enemies appears from no where. Enter a new area - all is quiet, not a single character - not even a lowly rat - to be found anywhere on the map. Take one more step.....Yep, a swarm of enemies coming out of no where. I quit and probably wasn't 1/4 of the way through the game. No desire to go back.Crysis 3 was not that great. I didn't even finish it. But FarCry, Crysis, Crysis Warhead, and Crysis 2 are the best fps games I've ever played.
No one suggested crytek is gone. Yet.lol cryteks not dead guys.. the crytek shanghai studio only made games for the chinese/asian market, crysis and the crytek engine is made at the ukraine based studio.
Dont even remind me of that bland boring turd. I never felt so bored playing such a good looking game.But I've never enjoyed a Crytek game.

Didnt they also close the Ausitn, Tx office too? I was planning on working there, but last i heard it closed down. Glad i missed that bullet.No one suggested crytek is gone. Yet.
But the fact remains that all but one of their offices has closed recently. Their prospects are not great.
All their offices are closed except for the one in Kiev. So that means even their former HQ in Germany.Didnt they also close the Ausitn, Tx office too? I was planning on working there, but last i heard it closed down. Glad i missed that bullet.

Crysis 2 by far is the worst Crysis I have ever played.
Crysis 2 graphic is just awful at the time and tweaked for consoles.
