Crysis Was ‘Hugely Influential’ For Uncharted 4’s Level Design

Crysis Remastered Release Uncharte 4

When it comes to level design, it’s no denying that Uncharted 4 has some of the most beautiful level designs and environments out there. Uncharted 4 was released on May 10, 2016, on PlayStation 4, which has won many awards including BAFTA Games Award for Best Game. Recently, EA announced the original Crysis Remastered coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch, for the first time.

James Cooper, who worked at both Naughty Dog, and Crytek, shares his thoughts on how Crysis’ level design and the environment were greatly helpful for Uncharted 4.

“Really excited to hear about Crysis Remastered, I have fond memories of working on the original console port,” Cooper said in his tweet. “Its sandbox approach to gameplay later became hugely influential on my ‘wide-linear’ level design in Uncharted 4 and beyond.”
