Crysis 2 is not only coming to home consoles, Crytek promises the best AI enemies ever seen in an FPS and stereoscopic 3D for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC platforms.

“Whether played in 3D or standard 2D, Crysis 2 drops players into a devastated New York in the midst of an attack by a frightening alien species. The alien enemies are armed with deadly weaponry and exceptional sensory abilities that test players’ skill and push them to the limit. These terrifying invaders stalk the streets of New York, leaving the streets in chaos and the skyline in flaming ruin. Surrounded by catastrophic destruction, players harness the superhuman abilities of the Nanosuit to level the playing field, becoming the ultimate weapon on a mission to save New York.”

It will be the only stereoscopic 3D title available this holiday.

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–This afternoon during Electronic Arts’ (NASDAQ:ERTS) press conference at the Electronic Entertainment Expo, Crytek GmbH, the award-winning developers of the Crysis® franchise, announced that Crysis 2 will also be available in true stereoscopic 3D.

“At Crytek, we always strive to raise the technology bar.
