The game is a followup to the insanely popular 2009 hit ARMA 2. The title has seen millions of downloads, both paid and free, and has spawned multiple mods, most famously DayZ.

ARMA 3 Beta will be bringing new features to players in the 20 km² island of Stratis to explore. Rugged terrain, expansive forests, and military bases will make their return as a staple of ARMA gameplay.

New types of aircraft, watercraft, trucks, and tanks will be available to play over the new terrain. You can also customize load outs and pick new gear and weapons as you approach conflict in different ways.

You can play through 8 brand new showcase missions on the Island or run through the competitive firing drills to hone your skills.

If you don’t feel like playing alone, squad based gameplay will is back in full force and you can team up with friends and strangers 4 co-operative multiplayer scenarios.

The in game engine has been revamped, which means smoother animations, better graphics, clearer sound, and improved physics. The scenario editor is back so people can create new and bigger mods. With such an active community, it will not be surprising to see some incredible mods over the coming months.

The specs to run the game are not incredible, but they still require some power behind them:
