Arma 3 announced for 2012
The next instalment in Bohemia's battlefield sim series is headed to PC next summer, with "radical engine improvements" promised.
War is serious business, and it's nice to have Bohemia Interactive remind us of that. The Czech developer today announced a new entry in its realism-heavy battlefield simulation series Arma, for release on PC in summer 2012.
Arma 3 will take players to a sunny Mediterranean island, where apparently there's a "well-guarded military secret" to be seized. As well as an "open-ended and story-driven" single-player campaign, Arma 3 will offer co-op and competitive multiplayer modes. There'll also be the ubiquitous mission editor.
"Radical engine improvements" are promised for Arma 3, including PhysX-supported vehicle simulation and a "revamped" animation system. It certainly looks pretty. There's more information over on the official site.
Bohemia is also working on a civilian helicopter sim by the name of Take on Helicopters, which it announced in March. That's due to hit PC in the fourth quarter of this year.

Interesting, so this means there will be a new VBS3 engine for warfighter training in addition. Version 1.5 (the "final" version) of their current warfighter training engine comes out this month.
I imagine they decided to finalize VBS2 so that they could move on to a "new product" and generate more revenue from that. -
