Crytek, the developer behind Crysis who faced layoffs and other financial hardships last year, was apparently saved by Amazon, sources at Kotaku report.

Amazon has agreed to a $50-70 million-dollar licensing deal for Crytek's CryEngine technology, which was reportedly substantial enough to save the company. Crytek co-founder Faruk Yerli hinted at the parternship in mid-March, referring to the deal as "a huge one, probably the biggest one."
