In news sure to astound at least two people, Crytek, a video game developer, is making a video game. An EA job ad found by All Games Beta shows the publisher has signed on the Crysis developer for a new project. Speculation on the new title includes such zingers as “it might be a Crysis title” to “it’ll probably be built on the CryEngine”. Crytek has quite a few irons in the fire at the moment, with Kinect-exclusive Ryse, THQ’s Homefront 2, and the free-to-play Warface, as well as its new social platform GFACE.

Speaking to Gamespot, Crytek boss Cevat Yerli’s predicted that the next console round will bring a graphical “renaissance”.

“The next graphics breakthrough will come in 2011/12, especially because it will be linked to next-generation consoles,” said the exec.

“I think the PlayStation 4, or the Xbox 720, and the PC generation that equals that will see a renaissance kicking in that will allow us to effectively deliver visuals that will rival offline CGI productions right now. With that, you’ll see a variety of visual styles and identities, as well as techniques used to make more creative images than we have seen today.”
