Yes, Crytek's 2013 game is monstrously demanding at its highest settings, but knock back the quality presets and it turns out to be far more manageable on a wider range of kit - and let's not forget that there was a rendition of the game that ran on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.


There are a couple of good reasons why Crysis 3 Remastered runs well on Switch and that starts with the scalability of the original game. The idea of this game running well on a 2015 mobile chipset - downclocked, no less - is mind-bending but there it is. That's one reason why we're still playing the game, the other is - put simply - that we love it, and the good news is that the upcoming Nintendo Switch rendition of Crysis 3 Remastered is shaping up very, very nicely. And even today, the fully maxed Crysis 3 PC experience poses profound challenges to the most powerful PC components on the market. It took pride of place in our GPU and CPU testing for a colossal eight years - longer than any other title. We have benchmarked no game more than Crysis 3.
