The latest episode of Crytek’s web series “The 7 Wonders of Crysis 3” shows new weapon the “Typhoon” in action.

As described by the video, the Typhoon unloads 500 bullets a second, leaving behind a mist of blood and metal where Ceph once stood. It is one nasty piece of hardware, and may just trump the X-43 MIKE from Crysis 2.

The video also reveals new Ceph variants. At least, the first I’ve seen of them. Just love, love, love their design. Crysis 3 is quickly shaping up to be one of my most anticipated games of 2013, nestled right behind BioShock Infinite. My only concern is whether the new writer will execute Crysis 3′s narrative with as much finesse as Richard K. Morgan did in Crysis 2.

Crysis 3 comes out for PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 February 19 in North America and February 22 in Europe.

Chris Holzworth has wanted to report on and critique games all his life. He first cut his teeth writing for enthusiast sites such as RPGFan, then took a break from gaming to study English, creative writing, and linguistics at Rutgers University. Started out as EGM's obligatory east coast correspondent before selling out and moving to the west coast. Chris is particularly keen on examining narrative structure, character development, and writing in video games.
