THE BUZZ: The first teaser trailer for Crysis 3 has appeared online, with the promise of a full length trailer next week.

The video is only around 20 seconds long, and shows the game’s new urban jungle environment and bow weapon. A full length trailer will be released April 24.

You can check out some details regarding the special Hunters Edition of the game that’s available to pre-order now here.

EGM’s TAKE: There’s not really much to be taken from this teaser. The graphics look top notch which is to be expected from Crytek, especially after its promise yesterday. The new bow weapon appears to have quite a range on it and will obviously play a fairly important part in the game, considering that it’s on the box art and is all Crytek have talked about so far. It should really add an extra element to the stealth side of the game. We look forward to creeping around silent firing arrows at enemies before disappearing back into stealth.

Has the trailer got you excited? What do you think of the new bow weapon? Let us know in the comments below.
