Crytek has today released the long-awaited patch for Crysis which is promised to improve performance, something many PC gamers have badly needed since the game hit stores late in 2007.
The patch weighs in at 139mb and in addition to some performance enhancements includes some fixes to melee attacks, memory leaks and tweaks to the grenade explosion radius amongst others things.
You’ll find a host of download mirrors over on Gamershell.com.
