Warface is Here! Crytek's Free FPS Goes Live in North America, Europe and Turkey on GFACE today

Frankfurt (ots) - Warface, the new online FPS from Crytek, is now
live and playable for free in North America, Europe and Turkey on
GFACE. Players can gain instant access to the game by signing up at
www.warface.com.

Warface blends Crytek's trademark quality with instant
accessibility, and can be enjoyed by shooter fans directly in their
PC browser. The game features a wealth of cooperative and competitive
game modes, four distinct soldier classes, and a special emphasis on
working as a team. Constant updates ensure that players can always
look forward to a fresh challenge as they join friends on the
frontline.

Dirk Metzger, Crytek's General Manager of Publishing, said: "Our
goal with Warface has always been to show that free-to-play games can
be top quality, blockbuster experiences that match the industry's
highest standards. By bringing the game to players in North America,
Europe and Turkey today, a vast new audience can now see for
themselves the lengths we've gone to in order to achieve that vision
and make Warface stand out from the crowd."

To provide players everywhere with the best possible gameplay
experience, Warface is localized into English, French, German and
Turkish, with more languages set to follow.

Upon signing up for Warface, players will receive a free account
at Crytek's gaming-centric social hub, GFACE; which also goes live
today. GFACE will act as a gateway to Warface and provide an
intuitive environment in which to chat with fellow players, organize
play sessions, socialize and much more.

To mark today's announcement, Crytek have launched a new Warface
trailer offering an insight into the power struggle between the
game's two rival forces; Warface and Blackwood.
