Electronic Arts and Crytek have gone ahead and officially announced Crysis 3 that will be releasing in 2013 for the PC, Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.

EA is describing Crysis 3 as the ultimate sandbox shooter, where gamers will get to fight in the New York ‘Liberty Dome’, exploit Seven Natural Wonders (wha…will we check out the Amazon Forest?) and use Alien weaponry.

 

 

Plot wise, here’s the official statement for Crysis 3:

Set in 2047, Prophet is on a revenge mission after uncovering the truth behind Cell Corporation’s motives for building the quarantined Nanodomes. The citizens were told that the giant citywide structures were resurrected to protect the population and to cleanse these metropolises of the remnants of Ceph forces.

In reality, the Nanodomes are CELL’s covert attempt at a land and technology grab in their quest for global domination. With Alien Ceph lurking around every corner and human enemies on the attack, nobody is safe in the path of vengeance. Everyone is a target in Prophet’s quest for retribution.

As expected from EA, they have announced pre-order goodies for Crysis 3. First up, we have the ‘Hunter Edition‘.

• Early access to the signature bow and its attachments (son of a bit****!)
• Hunter Nanosuit module which adds additional power and functionality
• Bonux XP boost up to level 5 in multiplayer
