CRYENGINE one of the most advanced game engines around powering a ton of games has finally announced official Linux support, so Crytek how about some Crysis on Linux?
More likely is that we could see their free online FPS "Warface" get ported, as that is what they are focusing on right now (apart from Mobile).

"The press release says that CRYENGINE(all caps) was ported but didn't mention CryEngine 3."
Exactly. Since the latest release of the engine it no longer has version numbers. It's only CRYENGINE (all caps). So when they talk about CRYENGINE they mean CryEngine 4(+), not 3 or 2 or 1. Which of course doesn't mean that at least CryEngine 3 games couldn't be ported. But it would require the devs to move the game(s) from version 3 to CRYENGINE.

Quoting: Half-ShotI never said I wanted an origin client. I probably wouldnt use it.Quoting: philip550cYou want a Origin Client? It's not worth it. EVERQuoting: AnonymousYeah but it doesn't mean that they will make a Linux client.Quoting: philip550cOrigin is written in Qt, which runs on Linux.Quoting: paupavI hope Crysis 2 and 3 will come to Linux.Right now Crysis 3 is origin only.
I'm more interested in seeing new games come out for Linux rather than old ports on this engine and I expect Steam will fill up with Cryengine games soon enough.
