Arma Reforger Will Allow To Rent In-Game Servers and Includes In-Game Purchases

Arma Reforger has been rated by both PEGI and ESRB and they have detailed some of the in-game purchases and mature content in the game.

According to ESRB, the game has been rated Mature 17+ because of Blood, Strong Language, and Violence. Here’s what they had to say about it.

This is a first-person shooter in which players engage in battlefield warfare within an alternate Cold War setting. Players move around territories and battle against enemy factions/soldiers for control of strategic points. Characters use pistols, rifles, grenades, and vehicle-mounted machine guns to kill enemies in realistic combat. Firefights are highlighted by gunfire, explosions, and cries of pain. Blood-splatter effects sometimes occur when enemies are hit; blood effects also appear on the camera when players are injured. The word “f**k” appears in the dialogue.

Meanwhile, PEGI has mentioned that there are in-game purchases with the ability to rent servers as well.

Advice for consumers

This game has received a PEGI 16 because it features strong and sustained depictions of violence and use of strong language. Not suitable for persons under 16 years of age.

Brief outline of the game

First person shooter, set in an alternate 1989, in which players can choose to join the US army or the Soviet army and help their side take over the island of Everon.

Content-specific issues

This game features strong and sustained violence. When soldiers are attacked, this results in sight of bleeding, bruising and other visible wounds, as well as realistic reactions. Corpses remain visible on the ground.

The game also includes use of strong language (‘f**k’), as well as milder terms such as ‘shit’ and ‘bastard’.

Secondary issues/information

This game offers players the opportunity to purchase in-game items, in the form of the ability to rent servers in exchange for real world money, which some parents or carers may want to be aware of. Parents, carers, or other responsible adults should check to see what is being offered before making any purchase on behalf of a child. It should be noted that the game can still be played without the need to purchase such items.

It is also important to mention that in both cases, the game has only been rated for PC. Right now, there is no official announcement of it but there is supposedly a live stream planned for today that might shed more information on this project.
