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.
