Crytek Picks up Free Radical

Crytek Picks up Free Radical

None

Free Radical Design, based in Nottingham, England, responsible for developing probably the most media-maligned title of 2008 – Haze – was picked up by Crytek today.

Crytek, makers of the original Far Cry and Crysis and Crysis Warhead, purchased the ailing yet talented development company. According to comments picked up by IGN, Crytek’s Avni Yerli feels Free Radical is a great match for Crytek.

“We’re very excited about this step to expand Crytek into the UK with such an experienced and highly talented team. Free Radical Design is a great fit to Crytek and its culture, given that Free Radical has a proven track record on delivering high quality games. The combination of this team, the Crytek network and our CryENGINE technology will be a foundation for outstanding gaming experiences and a magnet for the best talent in the UK.”
