Crytek’s first online FPS called Warface is a military shooter that is free-to-play
Set in the future, Crytek’s first online FPS called Warface is a military shooter that will be free-to-play. The game is dedicated to the Korean and other Asian markets, according to a press release issued in late November. In a genre dominated by Call of Duty, Crytek aims to revolutionize the online FPS gaming space for first person military shooter games.
Here’s a quick look at the press release that went out last month.
The military shooter in its near future setting offers a cinematic experience with next gen visuals, AI and physics based on Crytek’s proprietary CryENGINE® 3 game development solution. Warface provides gamers with a constantly updated extensive PVE universe full of dramatic multiplayer co-op missions, a full set of class based PVP and will be available for PC. This new Crytek IP is especially dedicated to the Korean and other Asian markets and is co-produced by Crytek Seoul. Warface is supported by a free-to-play business model.
“Our passion is to always deliver the best gaming experience possible. That’s why we opened our Crytek Seoul office in 2008 which today enables us to offer a game that is tailored to suit its market. We’re excited to debut with Warface in South Korea and to deliver a compelling and truly unique experience soon.” said Cevat Yerli, CEO & President of Crytek.
“Crytek’s proven pedigree with its multi-award winning AAA FPS games combined with our own cutting-edge technology CryENGINE® 3 and our dedicated team of experts makes us confident Warface will revolutionize the genre and become the next generation in online FPS.” added Yohan Kim, Managing Director of Crytek Seoul.
A video teaser and two screen shots have been released for the game so far, and judging by the video, the game play looks to rival even the best FPS games available.
Crytek, actually owns the domain name Warface.com, but at the time of this story there is no web site online.
The game studio looks to have acquired the name from its previous owner in early February according to the Whois records. The company made a smart move to purchase the domain before announcing the news of Warface, given that the price may have gone up had Crytek prematurely announced the title, then tried to acquire the name.
