Every week we bring you a sample of our favorite community games, levels and assets. Today we bring you the first Open-World sports game that started production in the olden days of the FreeSDK and became one of the biggest CRYENGINE indies to date.

Greetings and salutations CryEngineers!

It's been a while since we last featured SNOW by Poppermost Productions, way back in January 2015, actually. Now one full year later they are finally ready for Open Beta so be sure to check it out. It's Free-to-Play and LIVE now!

This time around we decided to do a state of development of the game. SNOW features a huge 65 km3 Open World mountain called Sialia, descent down the mountain and ride trough hidden valleys, several towns and backcountry landscapes.



SNOW has an in-game Store system where you can purchase and customize pretty much the entire character with over 700 different items and equipment from real ski brands.



Future features in SNOW will range from Snowboards, Snowmobiles, more camera options for the Replay recording down to VR support (Oculus Rift).

SNOW will be also be released on PS4 later this year, so stay tuned for an announcement when we get closer to release. If successful they are also looking into the Xbox One platform. That's it for now! Best of luck to Poppermost Productions with the continued development of SNOW.
