As expected, EA announced Crysis 3 this morning. The latest installment of the sci-fi shooter series will be arriving in Spring 2013 on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
Crysis 3, like Crysis 2, takes place in New York. The city has been trapped in an enormous Nanodome created by Cell Corporation. This dome has turned the city into an dangerous rainforest. Prophet, armed with a composite bow and upgraded Nanosuit, heads into the dome to figure out why the Cell Corporation is building these structures across the world.
Pre-ordering C3 will earn you an automatic upgrade to the Hunter Edition. The Hunter Edition gives you early access to the bow and Hunter Nanosuit module in multiplayer modes. You'll also start multiplayer at level 5 and unlock an exclusive bow skin and three dog tags.
Select retailers will offer an additional bonus pack to pre-order customers:
- Stalker Pack – Includes the base game, all Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: for players who like to stalk their prey from the shadows the Stalker Pack provides early multiplayer access to the deadly semi-auto Jackal shotgun. This powerful, close-range shotgun comes with a unique silencer attachment, custom weapon skin and two exclusive themed in-game dog tags.
- Overkill Pack – Includes the base game, all Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: the Overkill Pack features early multiplayer access to the Typhoon assault weapon and skin. Spewing 500 rounds a second, the Typhoon gives players the ability to go guns blazing to take back the Liberty Dome. Also included are two exclusive Overkill themed in-game dog tags.
- Predator Pack – Includes the base game, all the Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: the Predator Pack delivers early multiplayer access to the Feline submachine gun and exclusive camo. With an extremely fast rate of fire and a 60 round magazine the Feline is highly effective and deadly, at short range.
