Crysis Remastered will finally be released for consoles and PC later in September after it was delayed to allow more time for polishing. Initial trailers for the game left fans skeptical about the quality of the remaster, as it didn't seem to live up to the hardware breaking standards of the original. But Crysis Remastered has been well-received on its Nintendo Switch edition and now, with console and PC versions only a week away, Crytek is teasing what extra features players can expect from the game.

When Crysis was released in 2007 it spurned the meme "can it run Crysis?", which was a nod to the insane amount of processing power PC's needed in order to play Crysis at optimal settings. Those players who could run Crysis knew that it was a benchmark for realistic graphics in a first-person shooter at the time. This is part of the reason why the expectations for Crysis Remastered are so high, as players expect the same level of hardware-breaking standards as the original.

In a nod to the game's most famous meme, the Crysis Twitter account has revealed one of the new graphics settings Crysis Remastered will be utilizing, titled 'Can it Run Crysis?' mode. The new graphics mode, which is exclusive to PC, is designed to demand every last bit of a player's hardware with unlimited settings. A screenshot taken while using 'Can it Run Crysis?' mode was also shared, which shows the Lingshan Islands in stunning detail and resolution.

This is the latest announcement in a lineup of new features Crytek has announced in an attempt to curb fan concerns over the remaster. Recently, the studio released an 8K screenshot of Nomad from the game, hinting at the levels of visual spectacle players can expect. It was also revealed that Xbox versions of Crysis Remastered will feature multiple visual modes to make the most of the Xbox One's processing power. It's possible that a teaser for some of the PS4's Crysis Remastered features will be revealed in the lead up to the game's release in order to cover all of the release platforms.

Last week, Crytek released the PC system requirements for Crysis Remastered, which ended up being far more reasonable than the high standards of the original. That being said the game is still set to make use of the latest technology such as 4K graphics and ray-tracing. Along with the addition of 'Can it Run Crysis?' mode, Crysis Remastered looks set to test the limits of this generation of hardware.

Crysis Remastered is available now on Nintendo Switch and will be released on September 18 for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
