It’s time to suit up, for the trilogy has come upon the gamer community, and it’s planning to make a huge impact. Crysis Remastered Trilogy is a hybrid gaming experience of “Crysis 1, 2, and 3”, and a rare possibility that “Crysis: Warhead” is involved.
The story begins with the player being introduced to the main thing the game revolves around: “The Nanosuit.” A advanced high-powered exoskeleton created by the U.S. Military to give it’s wearer special abilities, known more so as “Modes.” A few of the modes are: “Armour Mode,” which allows the nanosuit to be bullet-and-shrapnel-proof, ”Strength Mode,” which enhances the wearer’s physical strength to the point of being able to send cars soaring through the air with a singular punch, ”Speed Mode,” which increases the wearer’s overall speed rate, and the fan favorite, ”Cloak Mode,” which gives the nanosuit near-invisibility, being able to blend in with the terrain.
The location of the game changes with every addition to the series, with the first game and it’s downloadable content, “Crysis” and “Crysis: Warhead,” taking place in the fictional landscape of Lingshan Islands, off the Philippines in 2020, while the second and third game takes place in New York. The music that came along with the game was heavily influenced by the idea of a radicalized future, in which an unknown attack on earth was beginning to brew.
The plot of “Crysis 1” starts off with saying that North Koreans are invading the seemingly unimportant Lingshan Islands, where Helena Rosenthal sends a distress signal, so the military sends in Raptor Team, a group of U.S. Military soldiers clad with nano-suits. Soon, after the group got onto the islands, the Raptor Team’s ranks started to thin out, until eventually only three soldiers remained: Psycho, Nomad, and Prophet.
The plot of “Crysis: Warhead” is the same as the first game, except it is viewed through Psycho’s perspective on his own mission. “Crysis 2” starts off in New York, undergoing a very dangerous virus. As the player looks through the eyes of Alcatraz, a soldier found almost dead by Prophet in the first game but brought back in a new nanosuit, he is told to find Nathan Gould, a researcher.
Like it’s predecessor, ”Crysis 3” takes place in New York, this time in 2047, where a nano dome has encased and quarantined the entire city. The player now takes control of Prophet, one of the nano-suit clad soldiers in “Raptor Team” who shot himself in the head in the second game to give Alcatraz his nano suit, now on a quest of vengeance against “CELL,” the company that aided in the process of putting the nano-dome over New York.
The only known downloadable content for the game is for it’s first, given the name of “Crysis: Warhead,” which as explained earlier, is a small sequel of the game, through the eyes of “Raptor Team’s” Psycho, on his own mission to find and retrieve a captured alien from Colonel Lee and the Koreans.
The game is compatible with Microsoft Windows, Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Playstation 4, Xbox 1, and Nintendo Switch and costs around $49.99. For the gamer community, it is action-packed fun for everyone.
