Arma 4 Official Reveal — What Bohemia Confirmed

Bohemia Interactive’s Arma 4 reveal at last week’s closed dev showcase confirmed five things, hinted at three more, and dodged the rest.

Confirmed: Arma 4 ships on a new Enfusion engine evolution, targets 2027 launch with closed beta beginning Q4 2026, runs at significantly improved performance over Arma 3 even with full 4K textures and dynamic lighting.

Also confirmed: a new modding pipeline supporting Lua and a sandboxed JS layer (a major shift from the SQF scripting that defined Arma since 2001), full Workshop integration, and persistent multiplayer servers as a first-class platform feature rather than a community add-on.
