Black Ops 2 Multiplayer Reveal

The HUD looks great, all of the new tech looks really interesting to use and I’m sure that it will change up the entire experience and team strategy.

So, if you have Crysis 2, and a beefed up PC with a DX11 GPU you should go ahead and boot it up and play away. For the rest of us, Crytek was kind enough to release an HD trailer to show off all the spectacular new visual effects. Enjoy.
