Crysis Warhead Last PC-Exclusive

Echoing earlier comments made by the company, Crytek business manager Harald Seeley has revealed that Crysis Warhead will be the studio’s last PC-exclusive title.

Company president Cevat Yerli said earlier this year that Crytek would move away from PC exclusives because of piracy issues as well as better sales on consoles. Quite ironically, the company announced Crysis Warhead as a PC-only release last week.

“He was referring to any new projects we will start in the future,” Seeley clarified to Next Generation. “Warhead has been under development for quite some time, and we had no desire or intention to disappoint our loyal PC fans.”

While Crysis did go on to sell pretty well, many gamers thought that the steep requirements for the game kept many customers at bay. Seeley does not think so.

“Other’s lower perceived hardware requirements did not actually translate to bigger overall sales numbers than Crysis,” he explained. “You only have to look at the comparative PC sales volumes of other prominent FPS games which shipped around the same time.”
