    FRANKFURT, Germany, Feb. 19 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ --
Crytek, the award winning developers of the hit game
"Far Cry" and the upcoming original blockbuster
PC game "Crysis", announce the world's first
public presentation of their CryENGINE 2 middleware to be

conference, a phenomenal amount of world wide public
interest and press coverage have resulted.

    This year, Crytek will be giving a full hands-on
demonstration of the capabilities of their new CryENGINE 2
game middleware to the public as well as potential future
licencees. Professional developers and modders alike who
attend the GDC will be able to get a first hand look at the
tools used by Crytek's own specialists to create their
current highly anticipated game. Interested parties should
come by Booth 848 and check out the presentation schedule
to see at what time their favorite engine or editor feature
will be demonstrated. Features which will be shown publicly
for the first time include the interactive "What you
see is what you play" Sandbox2 Terrain and Visual
Mission editor with fully adjustable Time of Day settings,
the highly advanced integrated Character Animation Editor,
and the new Motion Captured/Phoneme Driven Facial Animation
Editor, as well as the new Asset Creation Pipleline for
creating realistic, interactive and breakable objects and
vegetation.
