For over two decades, the Arma franchise has set the standard for realistic military simulator sandbox experiences on PC. Now, Arma Reforger is coming to PS5! Get ready for a next-level experience powered by the groundbreaking Enfusion Engine from Bohemia Interactive. This unique engine promises enhanced performance and graphics, a suite of new capabilities, and full support for consoles.

Unlike any other first-person shooters on the market, Arma titles stand out due to their unique combination of open-world, immersive gameplay, and realistic military simulation. On consoles, there is no other experience quite like it. Arma Reforger brings this unparalleled experience to PS5 players, complete with crossplay support, allowing players on different platforms to join the same matches and engage in authentic, Cold War-era combat.

Arma Reforger on PS5 features several exclusive additions, including adaptive trigger implementation with varied resistance per weapon type, haptic feedback, and motion controls that allow for precise customizability. The game fully utilizes the DualSense controller's advanced capabilities to increase immersion and transport players directly into the Cold War battlefields of Arma Reforger.

Set in 1989, Arma Reforger meticulously recreates period-specific military assets, including weapons, military equipment, ground vehicles, and helicopters. In addition, the islands of Everon and Arland are massive, fictional, mid-Atlantic battlefields featuring stunning scenery and realistic environmental assets. It features four primary game modes: Conflict, Game Master, Combat Ops, and Capture & Hold:

  • Conflict is a strategic battle for two islands whereby teams must capture specific points to gain an advantage over the enemy. Not only must they engage in combat with opposing factions, but they must build structures and run logistics to gain a defensible foothold on the island.
  • Game Master allows players to create custom scenarios with in-game assets to play solo or with friends. These can range from straightforward missions to elaborate scenarios, and the Game Master can modify the scenarios on the fly to curate a thrilling experience for players.
  • Combat Ops is a cooperative or single-player game mode where players must complete specific tasks and battle to extract from the islands of Everon and Arland. This cooperative game mode features dynamic objectives and enemy spawning, creating a unique experience for every match.
  • Capture & Hold is a rapid-fire, high-pressure game mode that concentrates the immersive and realistic gameplay of Arma Reforger into short and intense matches.

All game modes utilize Arma Reforger's wide selection of Cold War-era assets, with three factions battling it out against one another in thrilling, one-of-a-kind military engagements.
While modded content isn't currently available in the PlayStation version of Arma Reforger, Bohemia Interactive is working hard to bring this feature in one of the future updates.

About Arma Reforger
Arma Reforger is the first glimpse of the future of the Arma Platform on the Enfusion Engine. It marks the culminating success of Arma: Armed Assault (2006), Arma 2 (2009), Arma 3 (2013), and is the spiritual successor to the original game that helped define the mil-sim (military simulation) genre, Arma: Cold War Assault (2001).

Our story began with our first game, Arma: Cold War Assault, which was released in 2001. Developed by just a handful of people, this PC-exclusive title became a massive success. It sold well over a million copies, received numerous industry awards, and was praised by critics and players alike. Since then, we've grown from a ragtag bunch of garage devs to an international family of over 350 professionals – working on Arma 3, DayZ, Ylands, Vigor, the Enfusion engine, and various other projects. Our ambition: to make games that act as platforms for people to explore, create, and connect.
