well, sorta. some engines like unreal have indeed dropped physx (in fact that's the only one that's in there as having dropped it), but there are some heavy hitters in there. unity did not drop it as far as i know, but they have a separate version without it that's not made for games.
i also happen to know that ARMA 3, which is not on the list, is a heavy physx user. so i don't know how accurate any of our lists actually are.
my takeaway from this list is that if nvidia follows suit with their AX series and other pro cards, they are going to lose significant market share with the CAD and CFD crowd, because those guys have 40 year old codebases and they are not going to be happy that they have to rewrite a subsystem.
