Arma 3 Creator DLC: Western Sahara

2021
ShooterSimulatorStrategy

Military

Western Sahara pushes Arma 3's sandbox into a new, arid theater of conflict, defined by its focus on asymmetrical warfare and logistical strain. The DLC introduces a persistent, faction-wide supply system where every bullet and bandage must be transported across vast, contested desert, making logistics a core combat pillar. This creates a uniquely punishing and deliberate pace of operations, where securing a single road can be a campaign-defining victory.

About Arma 3 Creator DLC: Western Sahara

View Game Details
New and improved variants of existing vehicles in ArmA 3 itself are bundled with the DLC: namely, the Marshall IFV and Marid APC, both of which have been granted modular capabilities to expand their roles. Alongside this are enhancements to the Zamak truck which has gained (optional) anti-aircraft guns and ViVT-capable models. The Offroad pickup and the PO-30 Orca helicopter have also been outfitted with up-armour packages designed to increase their survivability. Additionally, five new factions - some based on existing factions from the Armaverse, along with a slew of handheld firearms, a static gun turret, and new drones in the form of armed UAVs that can either be outfitted with improvised explosives or handheld small arms, are included in the DLC. Lastly, this is all accompanied by a wide selection of (both new and retextured) personal gear and vehicular assets that are camouflaged to suit the arid environment of Sefrou-Ramal.
