Crytek believe CryEngine 3 already produces the same graphical output as Epic's Unreal Engine 4, despite the former being launched a number of years ago.
Speaking to VentureBeat, founder Cevat Yerli revealed the German developer's engine is already on par with Epic's new offering, and is all set for the next generation.
"The only thing I can say is that CryEngine 3 already exists at the quality of Unreal Engine 4," said Yerli.
"It already exists for three years now. You can go back three years ago to the GDC videos. What we put out there is pretty much what Unreal Engine 4 put out now. And what many others are doing now too. We haven't really put out our latest stuff yet."
