Arma 3 – both the developer and the game’s community have diligently tried to debunk any fake footage While it was initially praised for its sense of realism, when it launched 10 years ago, that level of detail is now a double-edged sword for military simulator Arma 3. It’s become almost routine for regular people, and even news outlets, to be tricked into thinking gameplay footage of Arma 3 is from an actual real-world warzone.
While we have found ways to tackle this issue somewhat effectively by closely cooperating with leading fact-checking agencies, sadly we can’t mitigate it entirely,’ says Bohemia Interactive. The studio also thanks members of its community that have actively helped debunk such fake videos whenever they’ve popped up.
