Dear members of our Crysis and CryDev community,
Today we’d like to clear up some questions regarding our continued support of your creativity and passion.
Unfortunately, we had to make the difficult decision to not release a Mod SDK for Crysis 3. We understand that this is a disappointment to some of you, but in the end it was a matter of resources; our team cannot create and support a Mod SDK at the quality level our fans expect and deserve, since their focus is required on other exciting projects we have in development.
In the past, releasing a Mod SDK was about giving our fans creative power. With Crysis 3 however, circumstances are different: thanks to the release of the CryENGINE®3 Free SDK back in 2011, we are now able to offer you a toolbox that goes far beyond a mere Mod SDK.
Therefore we feel that the best way to show our commitment to fueling your creativity is by doubling down on our new CRYENGINE Free SDK! The team has been working tirelessly to make this the best version yet, with loads of new features; responding to our community’s feedback, we have also removed the always-online requirement, and we plan to incorporate even more tools and features later on.
The latest CRYENGINE Free SDK is now available and we can’t wait to see our amazingly talented community using the additional features in their projects – ultimately, it’s our users’ creativity and ingenuity that drives the CRYENGINE team forward, and we look forward to your feedback.
