The update also added motion blur toggle option and deliver multiple performance improvements and fixes.
“We’re always listening to the Crysis community, and bringing the Ascension level to PC is a result of their feedback. In a future update, the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 editions of the game will receive the classic level too,” said Steffen Halbig, Project Lead. “From today, PC players will benefit from a range of performance improvements that make the game play and look even better, alongside bug fixes. We’re also pleased to bring Nintendo Switch players Parallax Occlusion Mapping and 900p resolution for docked mode, making the game shine even more on the platform. We appreciate everyone’s feedback, and we will continue working to enhance Crysis Remastered as we go forward.”
