Building towards the Apex expansion, Bohemia Interactive today released a major platform update for Arma 3. The Eden Update features the much-anticipated Eden Editor (3D Scenario Editor), Launcher-based Server Browser, audio upgrade, and many other improvements.


The goal of the Arma 3 Eden Update is to enhance the game's core usability and to cater to custom content creators in meaningful ways:

• Eden 3D Editor – Retaining the beloved simplicity of creating scenarios, the new editor finally adds the third dimension and a lot of desired functionality.

• Launcher-Based Server Browser – Get into multiplayer sessions more easily via better filtering options and Workshop mod support.

• Audio Upgrade – A multi-channel amplitude panner and distance-based samples for weapons and explosions add more immersion and fidelity to combat sounds.

• Font – Process information more quickly with a new, easier-to-read in-game font.

In addition to the above, the Eden Update also implements Steam Leaderboards, various scripted system optimizations, parallax ground surfaces, NVIDIA's HBAO+, and more. The complete changelog (1.56) is available for examination on the Arma 3 Dev Hub.
