CryEngine (usually styled as CryENGINE) is a game engine used for the first-person shooter computer game Far Cry. It was originally developed by Crytek as a technology demo for Nvidia and, when the company saw its potential, it was turned into a game.
When video cards with support for 3.0 pixel and vertex shaders were released, Crytek released version 1.2 of the engine which used some of the capabilities for better graphics.
Later the company developed CryEngine version 1.3, which added support for HDR lighting.
The engine has been licensed to NCsoft for their MMORPG, Aion: Tower of Eternity.
On March 30, 2006, Ubisoft acquired all intellectual property rights to the Far Cry franchise and a perpetual license to use the Far Cry edition of CryENGINE.

Games using CryEngine

Far Cry (2004, Microsoft Windows) - Crytek
Far Cry Instincts (2005, Xbox) - Ubisoft Montreal
Far Cry Instincts: Evolution (2006, Xbox) - Ubisoft Montreal
Far Cry Instincts: Predator (2006, Xbox 360) - Ubisoft Montreal
Far Cry Vengeance (2006, Wii) - Ubisoft Montreal
Aion: Tower of Eternity (2008, Microsoft Windows) - NCsoft

CryENGINE是一个游戏引擎，它最初是Crytek为NVIDIA开发的技术演示，后来该公司看到了它的潜力，将其用于FPS游戏《孤岛惊魂》的开发。该引擎擅长类似于《闪点行动》的超远视距渲染，但拥有更先进的植被渲染系统。此外，玩家在游戏关卡中不需要暂停来加载附近的地形。对于室内和室外的地形，游戏引擎也可无缝过渡（照明和渲染模式可能稍有不同）。
当支持像素着色器3.0和顶点着色器3.0的显卡发行后，Crytek开发了v1.2版引擎，其可渲染出更好的图像。在随后发布的CryENGINE 1.3版中，增加了对高动态光照渲染特效的支持。它只能在单显卡上启用，支持Shader Model 3.0和64位技术。
后来的CryENGINE 1.4版可以同时实现HDR和反锯齿效果（HDR+AA）。
2006年3月30日，育碧软件获得了《孤岛惊魂》的知识产权和孤岛惊魂所用CryENGINE的永久授权。
该引擎已经被授权给NCsoft公司，用于开发MMORPG《永恒之塔》。

Crytek Reveals CryEngine 5.5 Preview Details, GDC 2018 Tech Demo & Showcase Video

Crytek Reveals New CryEngine Royalty-Based User Model, Including Full Access to Editor Source Code

Crytek has announced a new 5% royalty-based model for CryEngine, alongside a range of improvements, enhancements, new learning offerings, and full access to the editor source code. Developers around the world now have complete, uninhibited, and easy access to the power of CryEngine, and the opportunity to have their expertise with the engine recognized.

Creators who release games using CryEngine V will find development faster and easier than ever before and incur costs only after $5,000 is raised in revenue. An enterprise tier will also be introduced for custom support packages and royalty buyouts. Developers currently developing on CryEngine 5.0-5.4 can apply for a royalty exemption if they wish to stay on the current version and not take advantage of access to the editor source code. For more information, consult the CryEngine FAQ pages.

Following the release of CryEngine 5.5, featuring over 260 improvements, fixes, and enhancements, an exciting new addition to the CryEngine ecosystem is the arrival of a new CryEngine Certification Program. The program will consist of three verticals representing core development disciplines. A Technical Artist Certification will recognize proficiency in the digital visual arts, a Designer Certification rewards expertise in using the editor, and the Programmer Certification tests core development knowledge on both the engine and editor codebases. Alongside the CryEngine Certification Program, Crytek has introduced a new documentation structure and walkthroughs to onboard users to CryEngine even faster than ever.

CryEngine’s Product Manager, Collin Bishop, said, “CryEngine 5.5 represents our focus on usability and onboarding with the editor toolset and engine codebase. The arrival of the CryEngine Certification Program, revamped documentation, and new editor source code allows for developers worldwide to work uninhibited with the CryEngine toolset, within a model that provides a price point for all sizes of teams. We have also created a new onboarding project named Flappy Boid that quickly teaches developers how to create a full game in CryEngine from scratch, with no prior engine knowledge, as part of our drive to open up the power of CryEngine to all.”
Additionally, CryEngine 5.5 provides integrations for both the Steam and PSN networks, alongside a new cURL integration for HTTPS.

CryEngine 5.5 highlights

• Getting Started Course: Our new beginner’s course shows users with no experience in game development how to create a full game in CryEngine in just 10 chapters.

• SVOGI Improvements: SVOGI can now run on consoles. We have enabled developers to cache SVOGI on the disk and calculate GI completely offline. This means users can make the most realistic scenes yet.

• Terrain System Improvements: New features and enhancements vastly improve the terrain system, including the ability to weight and blend multiple materials, more detailed height maps, and more.

• Updated Entity Components: New and legacy components are integrated in the new entity system, including rain and water ripple entities. A new VR Camera and interaction component makes getting up and running with VR even easier.

• C# Upgrades: We have expanded how users can create C# assets directly inside the Asset Browser, with Visual Studio instances, debugging through the IDE, and more.

• Game Platform Plugins: A brand-new Game Platform plugin allows for easy access to common distribution platforms and data transfer protocols. This includes Steamworks and PSN API functions like matchmaking, leaderboards, and achievements.

To see how developers around the world are achieving their vision with CryEngine, check out our new CryEngine developer showcase video and the CryEngine tech trailer above.

CryEngine 5.5 can be downloaded now at cryengine.com. Stay up to date with Crytek’s latest news from GDC 2018 on Twitter, Facebook, and at crytek.com.

Crytek shuts down five studios
开发商Crytek宣布重大重组关闭旗下5家工作室！

　　在之前被频繁曝出公司员工工资拖欠问题后，《孤岛危机》系列开发商Crytek终于在近日打破沉默，宣布公布将进行大规模调整重组。

　　在相关的新闻稿中，Crytek表示其将关闭旗下位于全球各地的5家工作室（其中包含了位于匈牙利首都布达佩斯、保加利亚首都索非亚、土耳其首都伊斯坦布尔、韩国首都首尔以及中国上海的这5家分支机构），只保留公司位于德国法兰克福的总部和Kiev studio这家工作室。

　　在其中Crytek提到：“公司将在其总部和Kiev studios集中力量继续开发旗下的重要IP。所有其他的开发工作室将不再保留在Crytek之中。相关的管理措施也已经实施，保障相关的工作、确保公司平稳的转移和稳定的未来。”

　　同时公司联合创始人总经理Avni Yerli也提到，这些改变也是为了让公司可以“瘦身”从而去集中开发核心业务，在经过这样的变动之后，公司运营也将变得更加灵活、有效。

　　最后据外媒Eurogamer的报道，之前传出的员工工资拖欠问题现在已经基本得到解决，员工的十一月工资也将在本周发放。当然，我们也期望在经过这样重大的调整重组之后，Crytek能浴火重生，在接下来给我们带来优秀的游戏作品，也希望在此事件中失业的开发者，可以尽快找到合适工作。

Crytek Outlines Future Plans and Focuses on Return to Core Competencies

Crytek today outlined a series of changes to its future business plans that will see the company refocus on its core strengths of developing innovative games and game-development technology.

As part of the changes, Crytek will concentrate on development in its Frankfurt and Kiev studios and continue to develop and work on premium IPs. CryEngine will remain a core pillar of Crytek’s overall strategy, with enterprise licensees and indie developers alike continuing to be served by regular engine updates. All other development studios (Crytek Black Sea in Sofia, Bulgaria - Crytek Budapest in Budapest, Hungary - Crytek Istanbul in Istanbul, Turkey - Crytek Seoul in Seoul, South Korea - Crytek Shanghai in Shanghai, China) will not remain within Crytek and management has put plans into action to secure jobs and to ensure a smooth transition and stable future.

Crytek Co-Founder and Managing Director, Avni Yerli, said: “Undergoing such transitions is far from easy, and we’d like to sincerely thank each and every staff member – past and present – for their hard work and commitment to Crytek. These changes are part of the essential steps we are taking to ensure Crytek is a healthy and sustainable business moving forward that can continue to attract and nurture our industry’s top talent. The reasons for this have been communicated internally along the way. Our focus now lies entirely on the core strengths that have always defined Crytek – world-class developers, state-of-the-art technology and innovative game development, and we believe that going through this challenging process will make us a more agile, viable, and attractive studio, primed for future success.”
