Arma 3 leaves Early Access, gets an official launch trailer

It took me a moment to realise that the waddling soldiers of this island of Atlis - via an opt-in option to a development build. Still, Arma 3's launch does remove a level of complication. The game is now "out", giving players easy access to all of its features.
That is, all of its features with the exception of the single-player campaign. That's due to arrive in three free DLC chunks , one per month over the next three months. Even without them, players now have access to 12 single-player showcases, nine multiplayer scenarios, eight firing drills, and, of course, the mission editor and Steam Workshop catalogue.
The other major effect is on the price. Arma 3 now costs £39.99/$59.99.
