Batman: Arkham Asylum to support NVIDIA PhysX technology
It was announced today that the forthcoming DC Comics-licensed videogame, Batman: Arkham Asylum, will feature NVIDIA PhysX technology, which allows for the creation of incredibly realistic worlds full of interactive materials and objects. As a result, PC gamers will get to experience intense realism and fully immerse themselves in Batmans journey into Gotham Citys asylum for the criminally insane. In addition to PhysX, both the demo and the full retail game support NVIDIA 3D Vision technology.
With PhysX technology enabled, players can explore darkened corridors packed with volumetric fog which reacts to Batmans movement and cobwebs which tear with his passing. Combat becomes a maelstrom of motion as office papers are thrown into the air alongside soda cans and litter as Batman lands each punch upon The Jokers henchmen. Throughout the game, the decaying gothic architecture is realized to an incredible detail with wall tiles chipping and breaking, stone pillars crumbling upon impact, and particles from breaking glass and debris shattering and falling down around Batmans feet.
