ArmA III is an upcoming military-simulation video game developed and published by Bohemia Interactive Studio (BIS) exclusively for the PC. It is the third installment of the ArmA series, officially announced on May 19, 2011, and is built around the new Real Virtuality 4 engine owned by BIS. The game is estimated to be released between Q4 2012 or early 2013.
The storyline is set in the year 2035 and follows a British former NATO special forces soldier, Captain Scott Miller, who becomes stranded on a fictional Mediterranean island called "Limnos" (actually based on the Greek island Lemnos located in the northern part of the Aegean Sea) during an international conflict between NATO forces and Iranian Armed Forces, and must fight his way out, by building an effective resistance force in the process and cooperate with the local population.
