CryEngine coming to Wii U games


From Cevat Yerli:


CryEngine-built software is already close to fully running on Nintendo’s next-generation console, engine vendor Crytek has said.
“Crytek’s support for Wii U is definitely going to happen,” company CEO Cevat Yerli told Develop in a new interview to be published soon.
Yerli claimed that CryEngine's tech was close to fully running on Nintendo’s new system, though wouldn’t specify any details.
“We aren't showing it but we are pretty much running it already,” Yerli said.

This is great news since Crytek has been all about high end graphics ever since the original Far Cry on PC.
