Multiplayer Co-op Campaign (up to 14 players)

The year is 1968 and the Vietnam War is reaching its peak. As elite MACV-SOG reconnaissance team "Columbia", your mission is to stop the flow of materials down the Ho Chi Minh Trail. Your team must engage in clandestine operations in Laos and Cambodia, hunting and destroying the PAVN 559th Transportation Group and its numerous security units. Feel the adrenaline rush of operating deep within hostile territory while the People’s Army of Vietnam try to track, locate, and overrun your team.

Community workshop mods and missions - singleplayer and multiplayer

One of the things that makes Arma 3 so special is its modding community, supported by tools and a powerful 3DEN editor created by Bohemia Interactive. Over the years since S.O.G. Prairie Fire released, the team has been constantly impressed by the quality of user-created missions on the Steam workshop.

• Subscribe here to over 100 community-made missions!
• Subscribe here to over 50 community-made mods that can improve or deepen your game experience (tip: if you are new to Arma, do not load them all at once!)

As time passes, the S.O.G. Prairie Fire team continues to monitor new releases of mods and missions and adds them to the collections. The Workshop is great for extending your playable experience into thousands of hours.

S.O.G. Prairie Fire features an integrated soundtrack including 14 awesome rock and blues tracks composed for the game by originalsas. Playable in vehicles or on the FM radio, these kick-ass guitar-heavy tunes take you way back to the crazy days of 1960s Nam.

Composed with authentic Vietnamese instruments, 21 cinematic tracks by FabianKreutzerSound augment the beauty of the Vietnamese and Laotian landscapes. As you stalk the jungles at night, or patrol villages at sunset these original atmospheric tracks can give your missions added depth and impact.

The Original Soundtrack is also available to buy and enjoy separately from the game. Some of the proceeds will be donated to the Special Operations Association for veterans support work.

To bring this fascinating period of history to life, every sound has been crafted to improve the experience of close-quarters fighting in steaming jungles. You will hear enemies whisper as they approach in the dark, or yelling as they rush to overrun you. The immersive medical system adds wounded enemies calling out, and dark humour shared by wounded soldiers.

The extensive recreation of every weapon, explosion, bullet crack, vehicle, and footstep sounds creates an immersive and unforgettable feeling for players. To complement the sounds of battle, many new special effects have been added to deliver a truly kinetic battlefield experience. Even outside of combat, experience the ambience of the jungle as it comes alive with realistic sounds of wildlife, weather and disturbed vegetation.
