The mammoth project Star Citizen comments on the crisis at Crytek.
Crytek (Far Cry, Crysis) is in a financial crisis. Salaries to employees have not been paid. The company recently announced that it would part ways with the studios in Budapest, Seoul, Shanghai, Sofia, and Istanbul. It only wants to keep the locations in Frankfurt and Kyiv, focusing on its core business.
At Star Citizen, a heavily modified version of the CryEngine, a product of Crytek, is used, but there is reassurance: The crisis at Crytek will “not affect” Star Citizen “one bit.” This was communicated by the “Director of Communication” via email in response to an inquiry from the US site Polygon.
He received this answer directly from Chris Roberts. Meanwhile, they are completely independent of Crytek.
