While Crytek first announced their plans for CryEngine 3 some time ago, today the game developer announced that their third version of their game graphics engine technology is officially available for purchase by third party developers. While this version is designed to work for PC game development team, CryEngine 3 is the first version to be made for console developers as well.

Crytek emphasizes the fact that CryEngine 3 will allow game developers to work on a single PC but see and play the results of their work on the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 platforms. That means we could see a lot of multi-platform games using CryEngine 3 in the future. It's likely that the first CryEngine 3 game will be Crytek's own Crysis 2 that's due out sometime in 2010.
