crytek was the original developers of the first game in the series, it was just an off shoot, and then they went to EA to develop and release Crysis, and Ubisoft didn't want crytek to develop the second game in the series, or the console games that ensued with after the original game.
I wish, I could tell a better story about crytek but their story is quite tragic. So after Crysis 1 they where more or less forced to make console games on PS3 and 360, or make multiplat games, where the PC was a focus but not the main focus.
Then they where contracted to make a kinect game that microsoft was the publisher, but that became an action adventure game called Ryse, it was their last big triple A game, they had allot of games in the works but what happened is that they bought too many studios and hired too many people, and had too many games in pre-production that they couldn't afford do have, so most of the games got canned and games that planned to use Cryengine, stopped because it was more effort to use than it was worth.
So, now crytek is a former shadow of itself, the big PC player with amazing technology for PC that was a whole console generation ahead of it's time.
Is now just rumble and nothing of what it's former self was.
