Crysis 4 got announced by Crytek back in January of this year. While we didn’t really get to see anything more than the title of the game, Crytek did release a small teaser for the announcement. However, today they’ve made another statement telling that Hitman 3’s Game Director Mattias Engström has joined Crytek. According to them, he will now be leading the development of Crysis 4.

The Crysis Twitter account even released a statement regarding the same which reads:

Before the trailer was announced, Crytek boss Avni Yerli did confirm the sequel in a blog post in January this year. He said, “We are so pleased and excited to bring this news to you, and we really can’t wait to reveal more details about what lies ahead,”
It is safe to say that this game won’t be released any time soon.
As just below the above Tweet, Crytek also announced some of its job openings. Most of the roles are for its German studio. They are currently recruiting an art director, a game designer, and a level designer too.
