Check out more of Just Cause 3’s high-flying action in these new, leaked screenshots

A new batch of screenshots from Just Cause 3 has popped up, despite no official release from Square Enix or Avalanche, compiled here on NeoGAF.

In line with what we’ve seen thus far from the open world adventure/physics sandbox, the action looks magnificently over-the-top — in only one of the ten new images does protagonist Rico Rodriguez have his feet planted firmly on the ground. In the remaining nine, Rico is standing on top of trucks or jets, gliding around in a wingsuit, or trailing behind airborne vehicles with his grappling hook.

This long-anticipated sequel to Just Cause 2 is set on a fictional Mediterranean island which you must wrest from a brutal dictator. The landmass is supposedly about the same size as that of the previous game, but there’s more detail, allowing players to explore deep caves and climb tall buildings with greater freedom than ever before.

The fan favorite grappling hook is back with a new and improved physics engine, and it is joined by a new wingsuit for even more high-flying shenanigans. If you’ve ever wanted to tie a fighter jet to a helicopter mid-air and then leap and glide away to safety when they explode, this is the game for you.

Just Cause 3 is set to arrive later in 2015 for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One.

Arm thinks AI is the secret to better gaming on your phone
Arm’s new Mali GPU uses neural rendering to chase sharper visuals, smoother frame rates, and more ambitious ray tracing without pushing phones quite as hard.
Photography, Light, Person

PC gaming has spent the past few years leaning heavily on AI to squeeze better graphics and higher frame rates out of hardware. Now, Arm wants to bring a similar idea to the phones in our pockets.

Arm has unveiled the Mali G2-Ultra NX, its first mobile GPU designed with dedicated neural acceleration built directly into the graphics hardware. That sounds like a mouthful, but the idea behind it is surprisingly simple: instead of asking the GPU to brute-force every pixel and every frame, AI can help fill in some of the gaps. For mobile gaming, where battery life and heat matter as much as raw performance, that could be a pretty big deal.
