While Lt. Dunn and the rest of Raptor Team found themselves in a three-way struggle for control of a tropical island turned frozen wasteland, Sgt. "Psyko" Sykes, the British member of the team found himself on the other side of the island – cut off and alone. Except for all the North Koreans and aliens out to get a piece of him, that is. The events in Crysis: Warhead run parallel to those in the critically-acclaimed original with "Psycho's" personality leading to a more intense series of battles throughout the sandbox environment. Mastery of your Nano Muscle Suit is absolutely vital to surviving encounters with human and alien foes as their artificial intelligence has also been enhanced as they attempt to flank, and use cover to their advantage whenever possible.
Warhead is a standalone game and it showcases the new CryEngine 2 to amazing affect with more focused firefights, denser environments and even more vehicular control. The new engine allows play even on machines that struggled with the original. Multi-player Team Instant Action mode adds team deathmatch-style play to the previous Instant Action and Power Struggle multi-player modes. Many original maps return along with new and larger ones for expanded online options that will have players taking to the land, sea and air to achieve dominance. Warhead delivers.

Features
"Psycho" Sykes in a new parallel story taking place during the events of Crysis. Psycho's secret mission will take him to the other side of the island on a ruthless pursuit of a North Korean general hell-bent on obtaining powerful technology. With the versatile powers of his Nanosuit and an arsenal of fully customizable weapons & vehicles at his disposal, Sykes will do whatever it takes to carry out his top-secret objective.
Action on the other side of the island is more intense, the battles are fierce, and the mission protocol is no longer "Adapt to Survive". As Sergeant Sykes, now you must adapt to dominate the battle. Twin SMG's blazing, seizing new vehicles, or going stealth, the action and the victory is on your terms.
