As of today, [b]September 12th[/b], it’s been 5 years since Arma 3 officially released out of Steam Early Access. Naturally, that calls for a celebration!
A lot can happen over a period of 5 years. And, looking back, that’s certainly been the case with Arma 3. As a result of more than [b]70 platform updates[/b], Arma 3 has become a very different animal compared to the original 1.0 version. There have been tons of tweaks and additions. Many of those have been so profound that now we couldn’t imagine living without, such as the 3D Scenario Editor.
During its fourth anniversary, we shared a [url=https://arma3.com/news/arma-3-4th-anniversary][b]retrospective[/b][/url] that charted our adventure until then, and earlier this year we posted an [url=https://arma3.com/assets/img/post/images/arma3_infographic_april2018.jpg][b]infographic[/b][/url] with some of Arma 3's achievements and most impressive stats. For today’s milestone, we’ve prepared a [b][url=https://youtu.be/CjL3_H1BqWw]timeline video[/url][/b] that covers each of our key release milestones thus far.

But that’s not all. Since Arma 3 has played such a major role in many of our lives these past five years, we wanted to create some unique physical memorabilia. Starting today, the Bohemia Store offers a limited number of [b][url=https://store.bistudio.com/products/a3-5th-anniversary-pack]5 Years of Arma 3 Collector’s Packs[/url][/b]. These are composed of true collector’s items: a hoodie, a soldier's salute laser crystal, and a printed map of Altis & Stratis. Additionally, we have a special t-shirt on sale. Find out more at https://store.bistudio.com/category/arma3-anniversary and place your order while stock lasts.

For those who have not yet enlisted for Arma 3 or have yet to pick up some of the DLC packs, we’re also hosting a [b][url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/107410/Arma_3/]special anniversary sale[/url][/b]. You can get the Arma 3 base game and many of its DLC, including the Arma 3 Apex expansion, at [b]up to 66% off[/b].

Finally, we know that as the game has evolved, most of everyone’s personal lives evolved, too. Since 2013, you might have finished your studies or started a new job. You may have moved to a new place and made some new friends. Perhaps you even got married and/or had kids. Or you've experienced some other defining life events. It makes it extra amazing to realize that, throughout all this, Arma 3 has remained such a bustling platform with one of the most loyal communities in gaming.
You’re the absolute best of the best. [b]Thank you for these 5 splendid years of Arma <3[/b]. Here’s to many more!
