Our take on Crysis Warhead®
The defining structure is a behind-enemy-lines recovery mission: Sergeant Sykes must retrieve cargo after opposing forces capture it.
What is Crysis Warhead®?
Play as Sergeant Sykes during a mission behind enemy lines.
After opposing forces capture cargo described as vital to the war, the assignment becomes a recovery operation. Fight through photorealistic locations and an interactive war zone with customizable weapons and vehicles. Human and alien enemies use enhanced AI, creating larger challenges during combat, while allied squad members provide support. Crysis Warhead is a standalone release, so ownership of Crysis is not required to play.
