Welcome to Arma 3 Survival!

Arma 3 Survival strives to bring the nostalgia of the Arma 2 DayZ mod. Additionally, we are adding new features and updates to enhance the experience and make a truly immersive survival mod. The vision of the mod is to create a harder survival experience than what you may find in most DayZ servers while having more content that assists in the immersion of the players. The mod is Arma 3 multiplayer survival only, so no singleplayer. The servers are hosted and maintained by us, to ensure a smooth survival experience.

How to Play the Arma Survival Mod:

Simply click download and subscribe to the mod and its dependencies on Steam. Once all workshop items are downloaded, open the Arma 3 Launcher. Select only the Arma 3 Survival mod and let the launcher enable all necessary dependencies. Currently, there is one server available.
To join the server, start the game and click 'Play'.
Enjoy your survival adventure!

What Sets This Mod Apart from Other Arma 3 Survival Mods?

We differentiate ourselves with unique features such as underground bunker shelters and an instance-based raid system. Our attention to detail is evident as our dedicated team, led by Hungry, spent over 7 years and more than 15,000 hours to create this mod.
Explore the custom Chernarus map, featuring both summer and winter areas, as well as an extensive selection of items and weapons. We have also optimized performance to provide the best experience among feature-rich survival mods.

Is This Mod Similar to Arma 3 DayZ?

While there are similarities, we have gone beyond simply replicating the original DayZ experience. We have created something even better by preserving the nostalgia while making it more immersive and challenging.
