Welcome to the over 500,000 new recruits that have joined the Arma 3 community during the Steam Summer Sale 2024! Close to 100,000 of you joined us during the sale's first day - the highest number of copies sold in a single day dating all the way back to the initial Arma 3 Alpha release in March 2013!
We want to help you get started on your journey from FNG to Arma Veteran, and to show you why Arma 3 enjoys the longevity it does with its incredibly dedicated and talented community of players and content creators - who ultimately have made the game, and the Arma series as a whole, what it is today!
If you are wondering where to get started, we recommend playing the Prologue campaign first. From there, you can play the single-player Showcase scenarios, and then the East Wind campaign. If multiplayer is more your thing, you can use the in-game server browser to find both official and community run servers with a number of different game modes.
Some of Arma 3's most fulfilling experiences come from joining a dedicated multiplayer community and participating in their events. If you are thinking of joining a unit, you can check out Arma 3 Units, Bohemia Interactive Forums, Steam Discussions, and the r/FindAUnit Subreddit to see what’s available. There is definitely a unit for every player, from casual to hardcore realism! These units are more than happy to on-board new players and bring them into the MilSim fold!
The Arma community has also provided quite the number of supplemental guides and tutorials for new players over the years. You can find written guides on a multitude of topics here on Steam, or you can search YouTube for video tutorials. The "Community Guides" video series created in collaboration with Dslyecxi, leader of the Arma community group Shack Tactical, introduce both new and old players alike to the wealth of possibilities that Arma 3 brings to the table, as well as familiarize them with the basic tactical concepts needed to survive.
A staple of the Arma series is modding - and Arma 3, like the titles that preceded it - thrives due to the talent, hard work, and dedication of these content creators!
Whether you want to create mods for Arma 3 yourself, or install mods created by others, it might take a little bit of effort to get things going at first. Fortunately, there are again many useful guides available online. For more info on modding, be sure to check out our Community Wiki and the official Bohemia Interactive forums.
With the Arma 3 Steam Workshop, you will discover a vast library of over 140,000 pieces Arma 3 player-created content. Just browse through the newest, most popular, or highest-rated Arma 3 scenarios, weapons, vehicles, and more - and click 'subscribe' to add them to your game. Find something that you like? Give it a rating, so others can join! For content developers, sharing your creations has never been this easy. Upload your Arma 3 scenarios (through the in-game scenario editor) or add-ons (via the Arma 3 Tools) to the Steam Workshop, for everyone to play and enjoy!
You can reinforce your Arma 3 game with additional terrains, factions, weapons, vehicles, gear, campaigns, scenarios, and more though a wide variety of official DLC and Expansions. Arma 3 Apex is the most popular expansion available, and a number of online communities require ownership of it to play in their events. Keep an eye out for future Steam Sales to pick up Arma 3's DLC for a discount!
Creator DLC (CDLC) is additional content for Arma 3 made by third-party developers, and published by Bohemia Interactive. Our goal with Creator DLC is to provide more original quality content to players, create an opportunity for outside talent to earn a financial reward, while also making it possible for Bohemia to invest more into the Arma series' long-term future. To date, six different CDLCs have been released by five different third-party developers.

We are excited to announce that Neverwinter’s new module, Mountain of Flame is available now on PC, PlayStation and Xbox consoles. This major update for the free-to-play Dungeons & Dragons MMORPG brings back the Mount Hotenow Adventure Zone – originally introduced when Neverwinter launched in 2013. With the return of this adventure zone, adventurers will discover the zone has been completely revamped and re-populated, making Mount Hotenow bigger and better than ever before. This re-imagined zone brings back a classic dungeon, the “Lair of the Mad Dragon”, in a whole new way as all the monsters and bosses within the dungeon have been reworked. Additionally, the module brings quality of life improvements, most notably, a new battle pass that lets players earn rewards, such as a new companion, “Eric the Cavalier”, based on the character from the 1983 Dungeons & Dragons cartoon TV series, Dungeons & Dragons.
In the Mountain of Flame module, the smoking volcano, Mount Hotenow, is rumbling once again and threatening to erupt. The mighty fire giant Gommoth, who lives deep within the mountain, plans to use the growing magma to free the sleeping Primordial within the volcano. Adventurers must band together to do quell the flames and battle against Gommoth and his forces before the powers of the primordial destroy all of the Sword Coast!
Heroes who take on this blazing adventure will find plenty of new content in Neverwinter, including: • Unvaulted Adventure Zone – Mount Hotenow o Prepare to quell the flames as the Mount Hotenow adventure zone is now unvaulted, re-worked and re-populated in this new module! In addition to dangerous lava flows and ashen geysers, Gommoth’s elemental forces have overrun Mount Hotenow. Adventurers will encounter fire archons, twisted cultists, and other fire foes as they explore the craggy terrain. Reforged and Reborn Adventure Zone Reworked and re-populated, Mount Hotenow burns like never before for an entirely new experience on the Sword Coast. Veteran players will find the adventure zone has major visual and layout changes compared to when the zone was originally introduced. Players must sassist the dwarven expedition and strike at Gommoth’s forces in the very heart of Mount Hotenow. Fire Giant Lockdowns Gommoth’s forces patrol the mountain, looking for intruders. When adventurers inflict enough destruction on Gommoth’s forces, he will unleash his mighty lieutenants, towering giants bent on your fiery doom. • Unvaulted Dungeon – Lair of the Mad Dragon o Under the guidance of prophet Rohini, Ashmadi cultists have overrun Helm’s Hold for the Hex Locus, an artifact with the power to piece realities and warp the nature of beings. Rohini has warped the mind of a green dragon Chartilifax to guard the Hex Locus. Convinced his true form is a green elf and subservient to Rohini’s wishes, Chartilifax stands guard over the Hex Locus and will devour any who come to claim the artifact. o Improved Dungeon – Lair of the Mad Dragon The classic dungeon is back, with a complete rework of all monsters and bosses. Battle your way through Rohini’s demonic forces and defeat the twisted dragon Chartilifax. o Three Difficulty Tiers Normal difficulty for random queues. Advanced difficulty for organized groups seeking a challenge. Master difficulty for guilds seeking the ultimate test of coordination. o New Rewards Rewards unique for each difficulty, with the best rewards from our challenging Master version. • Quality of Life Improvements o Guild Management Updates The Guild Log now tracks more information about what guild members are doing. Guild and Alliances can now be easily renamed. The Coffer now supports bulk donations, allowing you to mass-donate multiple item types at once. o New Battle Pass with Dungeons & Dragons Cartoon Companion Reward As players venture into the fiery depths of Mount Hotenow, a new Battle Pass will provide them with much needed aid. Players are able to progress the Battle Pass and earn rewards by completing Random Queues and by participating in Lockdown encounters within Mount Hotenow. By completing challenges through the Premium Track, players can earn a new companion, Eric the Cavalier, based on the character from the 1983 Dungeons & Dragons cartoon TV series, Dungeons & Dragons. o Companion Updates From the Neverwinter heroes of Celeste and Makos to longtime stalwarts like the Siege Master, many fan-favorite companions have been updated and improved.
Can you save the Sword Coast once again or will the flames of Mount Hotenow consume you?
No more mystery. No more shadows. It’s time to pull down the mask, beans.
Now that the dust has settled from the 💥 Vigilante’s DUM Justice, we’re here to break down and kick out some numbers for you! ⚖️
Let’s start with the obvious — you all love the Vigilante bean. 💙 And, let’s be real… who wouldn’t?
Throughout the duration of the Limited Time Event — DUM Justice, the Vigilante Hat ranked within the Top 13 Most Used Hats. It even peaked in the Top Five on June 15, beat only by the Trapp’d, Greh, Safety Second, and (of course) Fedora! 🏆
The Vigilante love showed its face in terms of gameplay win ratios, as well. 📈 A majority of games won in the event’s DUM Justice mode were won by eliminating all Impostors. 🥊 Now, we know that not ALL Impostor kills were done by the Vigilante (ejections are still a thing! ☄️), but… we suspect you Vigilantes simply enjoyed having the Kill power in your little bean hands.
This is even MORE evident with the fact that the average lifespan of a bean during the DUM Justice event was between thirty seconds to a minute! ☠️
Red continued to dominate the color competition. 🥇 However, we did see Grey and Purple knock down Blue and Green respectively when comparing to our previous Limited Time Event — Infection. 🌯
The bottom six colors remain the same as before, so we continue to root for our Yellow, Lime, and Brown underdog beans.
Now that we’ve put the Vigilante hood away and our Limited Time Event — DUM Justice has served its time… it’s time to look forward. 👀 We simply cannot contain our excitement to share the next event with you very soon! 🚨
Two things we have consistently heard from our community since launch have been:
It's a blast to play to play with my friends
“Started a new game to play with my son after the update. We're having a blast - it feels like a completely refreshed & polished game!”
“The quality time spent is worth any penny. Its a rly nice koop game to play with my gf not too hard but not too easy as well.”
I wish I could play with my friend/sibling/partner/kid who has the game on a different platform.
“I'd love to play this game with my wife but she's on PC I'm on PS5 lol”
“Any chance we will get crossplay in the future? Really want to play with some of my friends who sadly doesn't play on the same platform.”
That's why this fall, when Return to Moria arrives on Steam, it will come with a major new addition: Crossplay. Any player on Steam, Xbox, PS5 or the Epic Game Store will be able to host their games to be joined by any other player. Just like non-crossplay games, Steam players will be able to host 8-player games, regardless of what platform the joining players are on. Just share the same code! Once everyone joins the game there will be no difference between them. Keep an eye out for details on ship date as well as more blogs and livestreams in the coming weeks and check out our latest Youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGM1ogjam3w Note: hosts on Xbox and PS5 will have different limitations.
