For the first time Crytek have publically talked about the studio buyout, saying they hope it to be a “magnet” for UK talent.
Crytek’s Avni Yerli has said the UK devs have ”a proven track record” on making high quality games for fans. We all hope Crytek UK delivers us something spectacular soon.
”“We’re very excited about this step to expand Crytek into the UK with such an experienced and highly talented team. Free Radical Design is a great fit to Crytek and its culture, given that Free Radical has a proven track record on delivering high quality games” said Crytek boss Avni Yerli.
”The combination of this team, the Crytek network and our CryENGINE technology will be a foundation for outstanding gaming experiences and a magnet for the best talent in the UK.”
All of the studio’s assets have been bought by Crytek in their maximum buy of the Nottingham-based developer.
