Three New EA Titles to Support AMD's Mantle
AMD is pleased to announce that Electronic Arts (EA) will support Mantle, AMD's groundbreaking graphics API, in three new games: Battlefield Hardline, Dragon Age: Inquisition, and Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare. These join an extensive catalogue of more than 40 games that now support AMD's revolutionary graphics API. All three of these games are powered by DICE's cutting-edge engine, Frostbite 3.
The latest title from the Battlefield series, Battlefield Hardline follows Nick Mendoza's journey on a cross-country vendetta against once-trusted colleagues of the force.
Dragon Age: Inquisition is the newest entry from the classic series from BioWare. In this outing, legendary heroes look to restore order as you lead the Inquisition and hunt down the agents of chaos. BioWare's latest action-adventure delivers an unparalleled story set in a vast, changeable landscape. Explore hidden caves, defeat truly monumental creatures, and shape the world around you based on your unique play style.
Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare digs into the trenches with an explosive new Co-op and Multiplayer action experience. Blast zombies and plants across a mine-blowing world that delivers the depth of a traditional online shooter blended with the refreshing humor of Plants vs. Zombies. Powered by the advanced Frostbite 3 engine, Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare delivers an explosive new action experience in a massive, three-dimensional world, blooming with color and combat.
"With more than 50 active developers now supporting Mantle, we're excited to see how quickly our team's vision has come to a critical mass," said Ritche Corpus, director of ISV gaming and alliances, AMD. "We launched our Mantle API with EA's Battlefield 4, and to see it expanding into more blockbuster titles from EA is very exciting."

Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare - Does it really need it? I imagine that it'd run on a decent smartphone.

Hmmm...
Exactly. But of course if you say "40 games" it sounds better than "2 engines + some indies" support it. Any news about image quality and other graphics features in comparison to DX? 10% more performance is basically useless, but if it produces better results too... Now that would be something I would like.

No point in Mantle, as you'll have long finished the games before they get their Mantle patches

No point in Mantle, periode.
It's just for weak sauce AMD hardware that gets a decent boost.
Highend hardware will not gain a shred of "speed" as all the benchmarks have already showed us.

Hopefully Mantle is for DirectX as Vista was for 7
Both absolutely hopeless, but necessary for the next step of greatness

Yep.. its like Crysis 2 with its crazy late high res textures and dx11 support. It was a fun once through game.. I tried playing through again with the updates.. didnt make it much more than an hour. Some say "better late than never".. but it really doesn't apply to video games. Like Duke Nukem Forever lol.
