Did Amazon save Crytek from bankruptcy?

We have previously informed you about how Crytek, who has been struggling financially over the course of 2014, has signed a big deal with an unnamed company for big bucks. But now according to Kotaku, it seems that this company is none other than Amazon, who seems to move into gaming. Remember, last year they have purchased Twitch as well! Sources say it’s either 50 or 70 million dollars have been transfered so CryEngine 3 can be used. No idea what Amazon wants do to with it – recently, we saw CE3 running in Evolve… and of course, no official announcements have been made.
