Crytek has just released the first PC update for Crysis Remastered. According to the release notes, this first patch adds lean options to the game. Moreover, it fixes the annoying stuttering issues that occurred when Ray Tracing was active, and tweaks mouse sensitivity.
Additionally, this update improves the screen-space shadows, as well as the ghosting of objects in shaded areas while using Ray Tracing.
It’s also worth noting that this patch adds more trees to levels Sphere and Harbor. Furthermore, it adds new keybind options for weapons, a quick throw button for explosives, and Classic Nanosuit controller options.
In short, this first update fixes some of the issues we mentioned in our PC Performance Analysis. However, the game still uses the Denuvo anti-tamper tech, and there are still CPU optimization issues. There is also no word on whether Crytek has fixed the keyboard latency/lag issues when pressing crouch or jump.
As always, Epic Games Store will download this update the next time you launch its client. Below you can also find its complete changelog.

they didn’t fix the most crucial part which is CPU scaling. That’s why the fps is so bad the game doesnt allow multi-core processing or take advantage of hyperthreading.
The whole core of the game is rotten, just having to add leaning in a patch instead of being there from day 1 says a lot of what this team is doing.
The average framerate is not problematic to be honest. If you lower object quality and shadows somewhat you can get over 150 fps on normal hardware. The problems in performance are in the forced auto-saving (tech savvy Crysis fans always turned that off via config, but you can’t in the Remaster) and in loading events (not going to get fixed).
2020 is the craziest year ever, pc gamers get crysis as a console port.
i am always correct though, even when you disagree the things i say are true, you just dont like that fact.
“Improved Helena’s character model. (Reckoning – fleet)”
foot fetishists are glad
lol I read “feet” as well.

RTX is for nvidia exclusively.
No CPU-MultiCore = Don’t Bother AnyMore !!!
Poet soul!
Still another Epic fail.
My favorite part is putting Denuvo on game whose graphically superior version is already out on the high seas (or in stores for a few bucks ) for for over a decade.
Reminds me of that VR game of theirs that was literally on the radar of 5 people and they still shoved Denuvo in it XD
Only Square Enix is close to this level of Denuvo-related stupidity.
They could have remastered the original PC version along with Warhead and released them both in one package. But no, not Crytek, instead they crap on the PC fanbase that made them by serving up the console version like its their proudest achievement.
even a millions patches will not redeem this abomination.
Wow, they had to add lean…
I have no words
Terrible release, should have never happened and I still don’t believe it will be brought into a shape that’s actually worth playing over the original game. HOWEVER, I will say this: The changelog is not the kind of fluff you see on typical recent game patches, it’s real programming work that proves that qualified people are involved and giving their best. It sucks that they are put in this position. What a thankless task.
How can I report Crysis: Remastered bugs?
