Can your PC run this news?
We’re thrilled to announce that the Crysis Remastered Trilogy has joined our catalog, and the original Crysis is now part of the GOG Preservation Program!

Worth noting that the remastered versions have no multiplayer. There’s no bringing back multiplayer for Crysis 2 and 3, but the original Cryis Warhead is still available on GOG, where you can play old-school Crysis Wars multiplayer via LAN.
Warhead was like Crysis 1.5, actually. But I have tried playing the original Crysis online a couple years ago and it’s possible. Not super convenient, but possible.
For a game that old, “possible” is totally acceptable. I tested it on two PCs of mine on a LAN, and it works just fine.
Oh dang now I want to get a group together for that, I loved crysis multiplayer
Oh, nice. I played 1 and 2 way back.
My tv came with this 3D feature that never saw any use except for that one time when I found out that Crysis 2 supports it. I should try that again, if I can just find those stupid glasses.
wow never heard of that
the 3d tv’s were a super quick fad that went away in favor of uhd, hdr, and 4k i believe
You’re correct. Projectors still mostly support 3D, so if you’re into 3D that’s the best way to watch stuff or game in 3D nowadays, outside of VR headsets, of course.
Yeah. Mine is from the tail end of that, and is also uhd. It’s also supposed to be smart, but in reality it doesn’t do much, which I’m thankful for.
That sounds pretty cool actually
Not running android or some other bullshit really makes it worth its weight in gold.
A cherry on top would be if the announcement was “Now your PC can run Crysis”
But can it run Crysis remastered?
They kinda did when they shared the posts on social media earlier:
Can your PC run this news? ;)
Any media we can own outright is a win.
So weird to think that Crysis is retro now.
It’s also playable now
crysis remastered? does it have lower system requirements than the original?
Nope higher. Especially if you enable ray tracing which was added.
IPC single thread performance matters most for Crysis because their complex AI especially is single threaded IIRC. Remastered didn’t do anything about that.
