In fact, the work on “Crisis 4” was stopped in the third quarter of 2024, writing Chrytech in the message. Developers working on the new “crisis” part were included in further development of Ego shooter “Hunt: Shodown 1896”, which has been in the market since 2019. It was not yet known.
“Although ‘Hunt: Shodown 1896’ still grows, Chrytech cannot continue as before, to remain financially durable,” Critech now writes. “Even after continuing efforts to reduce cost and operational expenses, we have found that the trimming is unavoidable.”
By focusing on “Hunt: Shodown”
While the development of “Crisis 4” has been stopped, Frankfurt Development Studio for “Hunt: Shodown” is militant. Someone believes in the future of the title, which must continue to grow. “Hunt: Shodown” is a so-called live service title that is regularly supplied with new content and repeatedly generate income through the sale of in-game boosts and objects.
Crytech announced “Crisis 4” in January 2022. The first three “crisis” parts helped Chrytech for international reputation, the graphic of the in-house Cranegin was considered groundbreaking. But “Crisis” was chosen as a yardstick of gaming graphics, before Crytech made a name for himself with the title “Far Cry”.
His Krangin marketing Krytech in other development studios also, but it was rarely used recently. However, a major exception was just published: the medieval role “Kingdom cum delivery 2” was developed in Krangin 5.
