The Prophet returns to a terra-formed New York to take down Cell Corporation's evil plans of domination in Crytek's Crysis 3.

The game is set in a 2047 New York that has been encased in Cell Corporation's Liberty Dome. The cover story is that the quarantine dome exists to protect citizens from the Ceph and other dangers, but the truth is that it's all a part of Cell's attempt at world domination.

The Liberty Dome houses seven distinct locations known as the Seven Wonders. Players will have a new Nanosuit, a deadly composite bow, and alien technology at their disposal as they take on the various environments and whatever enemies get in their path (check out the screens in the gallery below).

Crysis 3 comes out for PC (box shown below), PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 in the spring of 2013.

If you pre-order the game now, you can get the Hunter Edition for no extra charge. You'll get early access to Prophet's composite bow and its attachements in multiplayer, the powerful Hunter Nanosuit module, plus the following online perks: An XP boost up to level 5, a unique bow skin, and three exclusive dog tags.

You can also get the following retail multiplayer pre-order bonuses (participating retailers not specified. Descriptions direct from EA):

 

  • Stalker Pack – Includes the base game, all Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: For players who like to stalk their prey from the shadows, the Stalker Pack provides early multiplayer access to the deadly semi-auto Jackal shotgun.

  • Overkill Pack – Includes the base game, all Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: The Overkill Pack features early multiplayer access to the Typhoon assault weapon and skin. Spewing 500 rounds a second, the Typhoon gives players the ability to go guns blazing to take back the Liberty Dome. Also included are two exclusive Overkill themed in-game dog tags.
  • Predator Pack – Includes the base game, all the Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: The Predator Pack delivers early multiplayer access to the Feline submachine gun and exclusive camo. With an extremely fast rate of fire and a 60-round magazine, the Feline is highly effective and deadly at short range.
