Crytek Unleashes Crysis 3 at E3

08.06.2012

What enemies will players be going up against?

The Cell Corporation, the human enemies in the game, play a bigger and more concrete role than they did in previous installments. You get to understand more of what it is they really want, which is world domination. They're exploiting the Ceph to whatever extent they can to get technologies to lead them to this. The Ceph, being a race that adapts to whatever kind of environment they're in, they're alien cyberorganisms. They provide whole new challenge in the game because they mimic the environment they're in.

What's an example of a Seth enemy?

The Scorcher is like a quadruped that shoots flames at you. It has this lizard-like look to it. All the archetypes that you know from previous games have been redesigned so they're not behaving or looking exactly like they did before. There is a really important aspect to the Ceph that you're going to fight in the game that we're really not going into now, but which ties into the level that we're seeing today in this big generator called System X that you're trying to disable. It's one of your objectives.
