The Cry Engine 3 powers Crysis 2.
The CryENGINE® 3 Educational License is available to educators wanting to ensure that their students gain experience with the state-of-the-art in game development and real-time 3D technology. For courses and research projects in game development, 3D graphics, simulation, architecture, animation, film and design, CryENGINE® 3 is the most up-to-date technology available and is now FREE.
Could’ve been better if they made a separate engine for PC using DX11 tessalation, etc…
I dunno, with UDK, Unity 3D and many other free 3d engines (some of which are even open source) i think they could have made this available to all.. not just students (and not to the single but class based too!)..
Well better than nothing if some1 is planning to make his cod version.. XD
