Crysis Remastered is a remastered version of Crysis, a popular FPS from 2007. The game was developed by the authors of the original, i.e. Crytek studio, and Saber Interactive team, whose portfolio includes, among others, The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt for the Nintendo Switch console. Unlike the original, the game contains only a single-player story campaign.

Plot

In 2020, American scientists made a terrifying discovery in the fictional Lingshan Islands in the South China Sea. Contact with them quickly broke out, and the North Korean army entered the area, which, wanting to take complete control of this find, cut the area off from the rest of the world. The main hero of the game is Nomad, a member of the American Special Forces, who was sent there on a rescue mission. Although it is initially the task of the soldiers to investigate the situation in Lingshan and liberate the archaeologists, the venture quickly turns into a real fight for survival. The discovery was a ship of an alien civilisation ready to invade Earth.

COGconnected: 55 / 100 by Lou Sytsma

This is a rather cursory attempt at a remaster. The use of downgraded assets, missing content, no DLC, no multiplayer, and no ability to quick save are all big letdowns. One thing the remaster does carry on though is the legacy of the original game in being able to run in a smooth and consistent manner. Further patches may improve the game but in its current state, the only reaction possible with this release is disappointment.

Full Review

PlayStation LifeStyle: 6 / 10 by Brianna Reeves

While many a fan of the franchise hopes Crysis 2 and 3 rereleases are also on the cards, this particular outing doesn't inspire much confidence that those two games will receive the love and care they deserve.

Full Review

Push Square: 5 / 10 by Graham Banas

But with all these setbacks, perhaps the age old question of 'Can you run Crysis?' should be refrained. Maybe we should instead be asking, why would you want to?

User Reviews Summary generated by AI

The main pros of the game

  • Graphics: Many users praised the remastered graphics, noting the beautiful visuals and attention to detail, such as realistic water effects and destructible environments. The game still holds up visually, even years after its original release.
  • Nanosuit Mechanics: The gameplay involving the Nanosuit was highlighted as a strong point, allowing players to switch between different modes (stealth and armor) creatively.
  • Mission Variety: Several reviewers appreciated the variety in mission design and the engaging nature of the objectives, which kept the gameplay interesting.
  • Nostalgia: For players familiar with the original game, the remaster evokes a sense of nostalgia, making it enjoyable to revisit the classic experience.

The main cons of the game

  • Bugs and Glitches: Numerous users reported significant bugs that hinder gameplay, including crashes, blocking bugs, and issues with enemy AI. This detracted from the overall experience and left many frustrated.
  • AI Issues: Both enemy and friendly AI were criticized for being poorly designed. Enemy AI could spot players from unrealistic distances, while friendly AI often failed to assist effectively during missions.
  • Gameplay Mechanics: Some players found the gameplay to be outdated, with clunky controls and mechanics that did not age well. The game's difficulty curve and checkpoint system were also points of contention, with some feeling that it was poorly balanced.
  • Short Length: Many users noted that the game was relatively short, with some completing it in around 5-6 hours, which left them wanting more.

The features or elements that are missing from the game according to users

  • Improved AI: Users expressed a desire for better AI, both for enemies and allies, to enhance gameplay and immersion.
  • Depth in Mechanics: Some players wished for more depth in the Nanosuit's abilities, such as upgrades or additional stealth mechanics like executing enemies.
  • Better Checkpoint System: There were calls for a more forgiving checkpoint system or the return of manual save options to alleviate frustrations during difficult sections.
  • Enhanced Story Elements: While the story was generally appreciated, some users found it lacking and felt it could have been more engaging, especially in the latter parts of the game.

Summary

  • Overall, while Crysis Remastered has its strengths, particularly in graphics and nostalgia, many users felt that it fell short in addressing the issues present in the original game, leading to a mixed reception.
