'Ryse 2' Still Possible for PS4?

When the Xbox One had been released, one of the more beautiful games that had graced the console is "Ryse: Son of Rome." After the praise, many have wondered if the game will be coming to the PS4, but being an Xbox One exclusive, PS4 fans were unable to experience Crytek's creation.

But it seems that the sequel may still be part of the PS4 game lineup, according to Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli. In a recent interview, Yerli revealed that not only is the company safe from bankruptcy, but that it has transformed to accommodate new systems financially and strategically.

As far as forward-looking for Crytek is concerned, Yerli said that they are aiming for the win-win situation, as well as the fact that they are also considering the PS4 when it comes to releasing the "Ryse 2" title.

"We can do whatever we want with it with whoever we want," said Yerli in a statement quoted by PlayStation Lifestyle.

According to the report, this was fueled by the fact that Yerli was not happy with the sales of the Xbox One where "Ryse: Son of Rome" was an exclusive offer. There are no definite decisions for the sequel yet, but the consideration for other platforms seems to be in order for the studio now.
