PC gamers have long held the Arma series as a quality, realistic military FPS. Arma II was also the home of the smash hit mod, DayZ. Bohemia Interactive is at it again, with Arma III for the PC. It’s being built upon the latest version of Real Virtuality (Real Virtuality 4), Bohemia Interactive’s proprietary graphics engine. Besides numerous graphical upgrades, Arma III will also include an enhanced mission editor and character customization. Another big change will also be that it’s going to have open-world, sandbox style gameplay. If you’d like to try it out, Bohemia Interactive is selling the Arma 3 Alpha for the low price of $25, which also includes beta access and the completed game. So it’s kind of like kickstarting and pre-ordering it at the same time, except you can start playing it now. Find out if your PC meets the Arma III system requirements below.
