Arma Goes Turn-Based

by Adam Biessener on Jan 30, 2013 at 06:15 AM

Arma/DayZ developer Bohemia Interactive announced today that it is creating a turn-based tactical spinoff of its military simulator series. Arma Tactics will launch exclusively on Nvidia's upcoming Project Shield handheld, and boasts randomized mission objectives and stealth as well as explosive tactical options.

Arma Tactics supports both touch and gamepad controls, and takes advantage of Project Shield's multi-screen output to allow players to see the battle from multiple perspectives. You can also bet that a studio known for its graphical prowess, working closely with Nvidia on a launch title for its flagship new Tegra 4 mobile platform, will not disappoint in the presentation department.

Arma Tactics launches with Project Shield in the second quarter of this year.
