On the topic of style choices, you can clearly see how Saber Interactive - who handled the remastering effort for Crytek - ditched the original’s blue and orange filters. The back of the CELL trooper’s model is more realistically shadowed too, and the AC box also showcases another, more stylistic update in the remaster: toning down the obnoxious bloom effects. There’s also been a mass replacement of textures, upgrading everything from weapon models to the tiniest of set dressing objects.Ĭrysis 2 Remastered, 2560x1440, Very High quality, DLSS Quality Crysis 2, 2560x1440, Ultra quality, DX11 patch installedĪreas that are logically meant to be in shadow actually look much more in shadow – see the lip of the roof, or the left side of the air conditioner, which is weirdly bright on the original. The remaster completely replaces this approach, using higher-quality specular lighting for static environments and (optionally, but clearly intended as the default) ray traced reflections.

To recreate the effects of light bouncing off different surfaces, the original Crysis 2 used a conventional cube mapping technique, later adding screen space reflections though a DirectX 11 patch.
