We would like to announce that there will be a DX11 patch released for Crysis 2. We are working to get the best out of DX11. Patch 1.9.0.0 has been confirmed for release on June 27th, which will be required to make the High-Res Texture and DX11 packs work. The DX11 Ultra Upgrade Pack adds "hardware tessellation, parallax occlusion mapping, and several upgrades for shadows, water, particles, depth of field, and motion blur."
As usual, Crytek adopt the Calimero attitude, lamenting on the expected bad sells of the game on the PC platform, a platform for which they forgot to release a Demo (Comme d'habitude, Crytek adopte l'attitude Caliméro, se plaignant dès à présent des futures mauvaises ventes du jeu sur PC, une plate-forme sur laquelle ils ont oublié de sortir une démo de leur jeu)

But if you have, and you're already invested in another game, then this carbon copy
