Arma Reforger has today launched its June 1 update on the Steam version of the game, so here’s the full list of changes and fixes with this patch. Today’s update is going to seem a little strange compared to what we’re used to, as the things that are fixed, added, and tweaked are in a seemingly random order in specific categories. That might throw you off, though each change will have its main purpose listed thankfully. The update itself though is nicely sized, housing plenty of changes across all major areas of the game. Sure, it isn’t colossal, but it’s more than welcome. Without further ado, here’s everything new with Arma Reforger in its June 1 update!
