Bohemia Interactive a lancé hier la version Accès anticipé du prologue au quatrième volet de la série Arma. FPS bien connu qui fait certes la part belle à l’action, mais qui se veut aussi proche du réel. Autant qu’une guerre jouée sur un ordinateur puisse être « réaliste »…
Quoiqu’il en soit, on appréciera ici un superbe rendu en 3D d’une zone de 51 km carré, région hypothétique située dans l’Atlantique où les forces américaines et soviétiques se confrontent. Le contexte est donc celui de la fin des années 80 et le nouveau moteur graphique Enfusion offrira comme on le voit ici un rendu superbe de l’archipel composant ce vaste bac à sable tactico-ludique.
Comme tout n’est pas que graphismes, heureusement, les joueurs apprécieront que le jeu nécessite aussi de prendre en compte la construction de structures de soutien et défensives, ainsi que la logistique.
Pour plus d’informations sur Arma Reforger, dont la phase Early access devrait durer un an, voyez cette page sur Steam ou le site officiel. Concernant le futur Arma 4, qui sera un autre jeu à part entière, voyez le site officiel (quasi vide pour l’instant).
Communiqué
Welcome to Arma Reforger!
Boots on the ground, Arma Reforger’s here! Get ready for unforgiving Cold War combat in an expansive and visually stunning open-world.
It’s time to return to the mid-Atlantic island of Everon — a 52km² microstate, which many of you will remember from Arma: Cold War Assault. This iconic terrain has been reimagined and faithfully restored, undoubtedly becoming our most photorealistic and beautiful environment to date. Thanks to new possibilities, made available through our next-gen Enfusion engine, we have recreated the jewel of the Malden Islands for a 1989 setting. So gear-up, set out, and explore! Take in the many sights and vistas. The glittering ocean bays, lakes, and rivers. The forests, hills and pastures, animated by the shadows of rolling clouds. There is so much to discover!
But what’s an Arma game without conflict? Arma Reforger’s Conflict game mode returns players to war. Join US or Soviet forces in a dynamic, multiplayer, team versus team scenario. Build support structures and defenses, oversee logistics, and capture key objectives by working together. To survive and overcome the enemy, you’ll also have to rely on your wits and fieldcraft. Make no mistake, your map and compass will be every bit as important as the rifle in your hands.
In addition to this, Arma Reforger’s playable content is supported with a real-time mission editor; Game Master. In this titular role, players can curate events, set tasks, and dynamically respond to other players on the battlefield, setting down challenges, compositions, and more. No combat encounter will be the same and if you’re one of those in the midst of the action, you’ll have to think fast to stay alive.
Last but not least, for our talented modding community, there’s a lot of new tools available. In fact, we’re sharing the very same technology used to make Arma Reforger — giving you an enormous amount of creative freedom. All these programs are collected on one site known as Workbench. Although only accessible to PC users, addons can be published on Arma Reforger’s exclusive mod repository, the Workshop, for everyone, including console players, to enjoy!
And remember, all of this is just the beginning of the evolution of the Arma franchise. It’s going to be an exciting journey, and we’re glad to have you with us!
