publisher, today announced that it will publish ArmA: Gold, a compilation of
Arma: Combat Operations and Arma: Queens Gambit, Bohemia Interactive's newest

"ArmA: Queens Gambit offers players an exciting new campaign with seven

In ArmA: Combat Operations, players will be able to engage in the
story-driven single-player campaign or take part in huge multiplayer battles

user-created units and maps.
ArmA: Queens Gambit will offer a new story-based campaign occurring 18
months after the ArmA: Combat Operations war conflict. In the same realistic
combat simulation experience, you will be arriving with a group of seasoned
mercenaries to help the government with a sensitive matter that the army
cannot handle alone. With unprecedented freedom of movement, actions and
tactics, the game will allow players to immerse themselves in battle with six
