Crysis Warhead to launch next month

A new game based in the universe of the Crysis franchise is set to be launched in Europe next month.

Crysis Warhead is set to be available for the PC from September 15th and is expected to feature three multi-player modes, as well as 21 maps.

The title, which has been developed by Electronic Arts and Crytek, recently won the Best First Person Shooter and Best Graphics Technology awards at this year’s E3 video games conference.

Cevat Yerli, chief executive officer and president of Crytek, said: "We think Crysis Warhead is going to offer a tremendous experience to a wide range of gamers.

"Fans of Crysis are going to enjoy more of the open-ended gameplay, cutting-edge visuals and huge, epic battles from the first game, while also finally finding out what kind of havoc Psycho was wreaking on the other side of the island."

Deep Silver, the games label of Koch Media, recently announced it is releasing a game based on children’s TV series The Magic Roundabout for the Nintendo DS, Wii and PC.
