New Crysis 3 Trailer Details Multiplayer Modes

Today, Crytek released a new trailer that showcases a bunch of multiplayer gameplay and details two of the games modes.

Hunter mode pits 2 players against the rest of the party. The two players, or hunters, are outfitted with an enhanced nanosuit that comes complete with permanent cloaking. The hunters are tasked with, you guessed it, hunting down the rest of the players, or troopers. After a trooper is killed, he becomes a hunter. The cycle continues until there are no troopers left.

Crash site mode is your standard “control the point” multiplayer game. Each team must grab and control specific points on the map to eventually take control of the entire area and win the round. The twist here is that the control points keep changing, which causes the action to be spread out instead of concentrated on specific spots.

Crysis 3 takes place in 2047, which is about 24 years after the events of Crysis 2. Players take control of Prophet once again as they do whatever they can to take down the evil Cell Corporation. The game comes back to NYC, which has now changed into an urban rainforest. It will be divided into 7 distinct hubs, each with their own unique environmental elements.

Crysis 3 is set to hit shelves in February of 2013.
