ArmA 3 came out in 2014, and people have steadily trickled into the game since then. Frankly, it's a scary thing to get involved in, because it's such a free-form sandbox with so many possibilities. While there are many ways to own Arma, and myriad additional bits to bolt onto the game once you do, we'll run through all the DLC available so that anyone who's not sure where to start can find their feet.
One thing to note is that with each piece of major DLC Bohemia Interactive has launched, there's been a concurrent platform update that benefits all players, whether they buy the new stuff or not. I'm a big fan of that, as it means even if you don't pick up all the DLC below, you're still benefiting from a few years' worth of free content updates.
