Arma 3 might be out now, but that doesn’t mean the last game in the series has been left out in the cold, oh no. Quite the opposite in fact.

Over the last few months a lot of game developers have scrambled to find new locations for the multiplayer servers of their games after the closure of the Gamespy service, with some games being over a decade old but much-loved classics. Now Arma 2 has been included in that list of saved games, with developers Bohemia Interactive having changed their multiplayer functions to work with Steam’s servers and relaunched the multiplayer through a new patch to the game which also includes tweaks and bug fixes.

The patch is only being released for the Steam version of the game, but now all CD keys work on Steam, including those that came with the retail version of the game so the patch will be available to everyone who is willing to move their files over to Valve’s care and storage.

“It was.. of paramount importance to offer an alternative for the passionate Operation Arrowhead players who have supported our game and our company for so many years,” the developer said.
