Arma Reforger is a $30 appetizer for Arma 4, and it's out today (PC Gamer)

Following a thorough leak that appeared online over the weekend, Bohemia Interactive has confirmed the existence of two new Arma games: Arma Reforger and ...

Bohemia really is starting from scratch with the new engine, and that means the modders who have been the lifeblood of the series for years are too. Bohemia really wants its modding community to get its hands on Workbench, Enfusion's creative suite that is apparently the same tools the studio is using to make the game. This is what Bohemia told press during a presentation last week, though a press release provided later says Bohemia is "pledging continued support" for Reforger after focus shifts to Arma 4. You read right: there's a new Arma game out today, but fans eager for the next generation of Arma will have to check their expectations at the door. Reforger will not one day become Arma 4 and Bohemia isn't promising any Arma 4 discounts to Reforger's earliest adopters. Bohemia is surprise launching Arma Reforger, an introductory version of what Arma 4 will eventually be, today in early access for $30 on Steam.

Military simulator Arma Reforger will serve as an advance force for Arma 4, Bohemia Interactive have revealed during their 'Future Of Arma' stream today.

Arma Reforger is the next game in the long-running military simulation series and will serve as an advance force for Arma 4, Bohemia Interactive have revealed during their ‘Future Of Arma’ stream today. You can play as the United States or Soviet Russia during the tail-end of the Cold War in the 1980s. It is a nifty-looking improvement over the Real Virtuality engine Arma’s been using ever since it used to be Operation: Flashpoint, and my desktop fainted every time I tried to run it.

(It sounds similar to a DM in Dungeons & Dragons.) This should be a boon for diehards of the series; finally, a chance to play around with Arma's tools using modern technology. Some PC lifers might fear that Bohemia's console pivot means that the studio will deemphasize some of Arma's more fiddly, hardcore tics. Arma Reforger is, in some ways, a reimagining of the first game of the series -- 2001's Operation Flashpoint. A fictional Eastern European island from that game, Everon, has been fully remastered in Bohemia's new Enfusion engine, and players are cast as either Americans or Soviets in the keening, late-’80s apogee of the Cold War. I was granted access to a pre-release build, which gave me a tutorial and a few multiplayer servers that were otherwise abandoned by any other actual human players, and it was immediately clear that Bohemia's graphical retrofitting paid off. The main menu includes a link to the Workshop, where players will be able to upload their own bespoke creations directly to the game's servers. Bohemia mentioned that development for Reforger has been difficult, likely because importing systems to a brand new gaming infrastructure is always challenging. Arma Reforger is a work in progress.
