A scenario for Arma Reforger Coming to Arma 4

Survive
Dead Everon.

The island fell. What is left are the infected, armed militias and other players who want what you have. Build a base, feed yourself, trade, and try to stay alive.

PvPvE · DayZ-style survival

Everything on Everon wants something from you.

Renegade Project: Dead Everon, also known as Renegade DayZ, turns Arma Reforger into a DayZ-style survival game. You spawn with nothing on the island of Everon, scavenge for food, water and weapons, and decide who to trust. It is a PvPvE sandbox where the infected, militias and bandits are only half of the danger.

Survive

Fill your canteen at a well, forage apples, harvest cabbage, potatoes and pumpkins, and fish. Then build a base you can hold.

PvE

Infected hordes, armed militias guarding the military sites and bandits roaming the island. Missions pay for the risk.

PvP

Other survivors can kill you, loot your body and raid your base. Stay alert and choose who you trust.

Transport

Buy and sell cars, trucks and even helicopters at the traders, then keep them out of the wrong hands.

Crafting

Chop planks, mine stone and gemstones, cook over a fire pit, build walls and gates, and process drugs for the black market.

Trade zones

Trader hubs are safe zones: nobody can kill you while you sell loot for Credits and buy vests, backpacks, ammo and vehicles.
