With the PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 releases being days away, Crytek has published a new Crysis Remastered trailer that teases what kind of visual improvements players can expect from the hyped remake. In addition to various effects such as global illumination and real-time reflections, the footage shows off the game’s memey “Can It Run Crysis?” mode, which boasts 8K resolution and textures.

True I mean it'll probably be free here soon.

Ok the game DOES look better but it isn't a OOooo I need this game. Then again Crysis never was for me.

Wow even the "old" footage looks pretty good at 4k fullscreen. I'd say this looks pretty **** good. Maybe finally a remaster worth bothering with.
