Due to complaints about Crysis 2 's linearity, the game's levels were opened up so as to grant players more freedom. The game introduces the 'Seven Wonders', with each wonder having its own unique landscape and tactical layout.
The game is set in a post-apocalyptic New York City, in an effort to merge the urban landscape of Crysis 2 and the forest setting of the original Crysis. New features introduced in Crysis 3 include a new Nanosuit ability called 'Rip & Throw', a compound bow and hacking, which allows players to hack into enemies' equipment, drones, and security defenses. Gameplay revolves around the use of the Nanosuit, which grants players a variety of abilities such as being invisible. The game's story serves as the end of the Crysis trilogy. Crysis 3 's story revolves around Prophet, a Nanosuit holder who is on a quest to take revenge on the Alpha Ceph, the leader of the Ceph alien race.
The multiplayer portion of the game was developed by Crytek UK. It is the third and final main game of the Crysis series, a sequel to the 2011 video game Crysis 2. Crysis 3 is a 2013 first-person shooter video game developed by Crytek and published in 2013 by Electronic Arts.
