Crytek takes on Unity and Epic Games with new SDK policy; No costs for non-commercial use
A free edition of CryEngine 3 will be available in August, vendor Crytek has announced.
The Frankfurt-based studio said the new SDK will be free to download for non-commercial purposes.
CryEngine 3 is the high–end multi-platform game engine that powered the FPS blockbuster Crysis 2. In making it free to play with, Crytek is following the path of rival engine firms Unity and Epic Games.
