The first video in the 7 Wonders of Crysis 3 series has just been released on the web, showing off an intense firefight right in the middle of a New York City that's been taken over by plants and vegetation.

Crysis 3 continues the story of the previous games, once again taking place in New York City, but at a later point in time, after the evil CELL Corporation has set up a special dome around it that accelerated the growth of vegetation.

Now, in order to show off this new changed environment, a special video has just been released as part of the 7 Wonders of Crysis 3 series, made by developer Crytek in collaboration with filmmaker Albert Hughes.

In the footage above, you can admire the protagonist, Prophet, as he takes on a squad of CELL mercenaries by using the different powers of his Nanosuit, from the invisibility cloak, to super strength or maximum armor.

The whole video is quite impressive so check it out and get ready for the release of Crysis 3 in February for PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.
