Welcome back to Malden, soldier! This is where we started our amazing journey with the Arma franchise sixteen years ago. We hope you'll enjoy this re-imagination of Malden, which is sure to bring back many memories of a certain flashpoint occurring on the island. Alongside the new terrain, this free DLC also delivers a new cooperative mode: Combat Patrol. Please enjoy the Malden DLC as a token of our appreciation to the best community in the world. You have been with us every step of the way and got Arma to where it is now. Thank you!
Key Features
Malden 2035 Malden 2035 is a fresh take on the original Malden terrain featured in the very first Arma game. While Malden 2035 re-uses many vanilla Arma 3 structures, vegetation, and similar assets, it also includes additions such as colored buildings, vineyards, and barns. Malden 2035 was initially developed for Bohemia Interactive’s free tactical multiplayer shooter, Argo, and benefits greatly from Argo's infantry focus. A lot of effort was put into the gameplay flow of each location, and as such, this new version of Malden is ideal for Close Quarters Combat.
Combat Patrol To (re)introduce Malden in a fun way, the Malden DLC comes with a completely new multiplayer mode, Combat Patrol. Combat Patrol is a quick and dynamic cooperative multiplayer mode in which you are a member of an infantry team with the possibility to select the Area of Operations. Each play-through will be different thanks to the mode's heavily randomized nature and behavior. If you want to experience authentic Arma gameplay, then Combat Patrol is a great starting point. The mode is available for all official Arma 3 terrains, including Malden 2035.
In addition to the new Malden terrain and Combat Patrol multiplayer mode, the free Malden DLC also includes:
New Buildings – the Malden terrain delivers new structures to Arma 3 content creators such as a barn and fittingly colored buildings.
Escape from Malden/Tanoa – the tense multiplayer survival mode is now available on Malden and Tanoa* (Escape from Tanoa requires ownership of the Arma 3 Apex expansion).
Official Soundtrack – listen to epic orchestral renditions of the classic Arma Cold War Assault and Arma 3 main theme songs (music is available only to owners of the Arma 3 Digital Deluxe Edition, Arma 3 Extended Edition, Arma 3 Apex Edition, Arma 3 Special Edition, and Arma 3 Supporter Edition).
The free Arma 3 Malden DLC is automatically added to the Steam Library of everyone who owns Arma 3.
Arma 3 supports the BattlEye anti-cheat engine. Most server admins choose to enable it on their servers, so please refrain from cheats and hacks or you may receive a global ban. BattlEye global bans are shared with DayZ and Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead.
