ARMA 3 gets NVIDIA HBAO+ and Better Shadows

One of the most popular open-world tactical military shooters is ARMA 3.  It currently resides 17th on the Steam charts of popular games and uses NVIDIA PhysX to enhance the realism in games. 

Today Bohemia Interactive has released a patch for ARMA 3 that includes two more NVIDA based technologies including ShadowWorks and HBAO+ (Horizon Based Ambient Occlusion)

One of the best things about PC gaming is the breadth of experiences on offer - whether you like World War I hex games, side-scrolling co-op puzzle platformers, or twitch multiplayer shooters, there's something for you. If your jam is modern-era, combined arms, tactical military shooters, there's no better choice than Arma 3. Offering land, air and underwater combat, in single-player missions and online with dozens of other players, Arma 3 is the culmination of Bohemia Interactive's tactical-gaming efforts that began back in 2001 with Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis.

Personally I have never played ARMA 3 but have heard good things about the game including the graphical detail.  By adding enhanced shadows the game developer adds even more depth to the scenes which can only be experienced on NVIDIA based graphics.
