Considering they state "Maintain Linux support for CryENGINE" that does suggest that there is already at least a basic port of their 3D engine.

All around great news, it means another major game engine shall hopefully be fully supported under Linux, who knows maybe we will get Crysis ;) Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.
