Crysis Remastered was one of those games that built a considerable amount of hype last year. The era-defining FPS classic that used to dominate gaming back in the day, got a remastered version for the new-gen of gaming. The release of Crysis Remastered was nothing short of an absolute hit, although it was only available on PC and the previous-gen consoles. With the remastered title, Crysis brought back the age-old iconic question, “Can your machine run Crysis?”

Crysis Remastered features advanced ray-traced graphics and other enhancements, visual and otherwise. Crytek made sure that its iconic FPS title gets the version it deserves for the new-gen hardware. Players had been eagerly waiting for further enhancements for the new-gen version of the game. Finally, they can rest easy, as the title got a major update earlier today.

The latest does not just include gameplay improvements, but includes an entirely new level as well. Check out the complete patch notes below.
