A leak from earlier today confirms that the 4 refers to a fourth Crysis game. As reported by Eurogamer, Crytek’s BiliBili account posted a message that translates to “The ‘Crysis 4’ project is confirmed, opening a new nano battlefield!”

Crysis is a first-person shooter series that’s as synonymous with high-tech visuals as it is beloved gameplay. Pitting players against alien invasions, deadly ciruses and mercenary forces, the games offered first-person combat with added nanosuit powers.

It’s been 9 years since Crysis 3, but we’ve recently seen the entire trilogy remastered, leading many to speculate that a sequel could be on the way.
