Crytek’s CryEngine update focuses on novice game devs

Crytek is still throwing punches. The Hunt: Showdown developer wants to keep competing in the game-development toolkit space. To do that, it has released version 5.5 of CryEngine. You can download the update right now and get its numerous improvements and new features.

While Crytek uses CryEngine in its own games, it also licenses it out to third-party developers. This engine powers winter-sports sim Snow. Developer Warhorse Studios uses it for medieval adventure Kingdom Come: Deliverance. Arkane Studios even used CryEngine for space-station sim Prey.
