Win Crytek merch by voting for your favorite CRYENGINE game released in 2021.

Today we're launching our CRYENGINE Game of the Year 2021 awards, and we need your vote to decide the winner! We're proud of the wide range of developers and licensees who choose CRYENGINE to create unique, exciting, and ambitious experiences with our engine. 2021 was another excellent year for CRYENGINE-powered games, and it was no easy task to select a shortlist from qualifying titles released during the 2021 calendar year. But after much deliberation, our team has chosen the nominees, and now we need your votes to decide who will take home the coveted award. And by participating in the vote, you can win some Crytek merch too!

Take part by checking out the nominees below, and then vote for the game you think should win. Leave a comment explaining why you have chosen your favorite, and you will be in with a chance of winning merch from the Crytek store.

If you haven't played all the games on our shortlist yet, you can learn more about each of our nominees during dedicated episodes of devcom's Vertical Slice show, hosted by Astrid Gooding and streamed on their Twitch channel over the next three weeks. Each week a different nominee will be showcased and discussed with special guests, including developers and members of your CRYENGINE Team. And the day after each Vertical Slice show, our very own Roman Perezogin, CRYENGINE Junior Evangelist, will be playing each game on our official Twitch channel too. There will be game key giveaways during all these streams, so don't forget to subscribe and tune in.

Voting closes on January 31, and the winning game will be announced on February 3. Our dedicated campaign page hosts further information about each game while those all-important terms and conditions can be found at the top of this topic.

So, without further ado, here are the nominees:

The Alien Cube

The Alien Cube is a Lovecraftian "cosmic first-person horror adventure" from solo developer Alessandro Guzzo. Worlds collide when your uncle disappears, and you must confront terrible truths and nightmarish visions in this tense and terrifying indie horror game.
