Crytek to 'play a major role' in console gaming

Though the Germany-headquartered indie giant Crytek has built its reputation and riches predominantly in the PC space, the managing director of the group's UK studio believes that it can be a key player in console gaming.

Speaking to Develop in the second part of an exclusive interview, Hilton explains that Crytek UK is "contributing some critical elements" to the upcoming multiplatform title, Crysis 2.

When asked what Crytek UK can add to the franchise, Hilton said,

"We have a lot of history with first-person-shooters, action-adventure games and multiplayer gaming, particularly on consoles, so we are contributing in all of these areas. I know Crytek itself was a PC-based company before, but they are going to increasingly play a major role in the console space, and we're going to be a big part of that."
