If Battlefield 6 feels too mainstream, and Arma feels too hardcore, '83 says "come see us, mate" With a new demo inbound, '83 dev Blue Dot Games talks about its place in the mil-sim landscape and why it'll make post-launch content free.

One of our Alpha Playtesters had some spare time in between playtests and made an alternative '83 logo.

The dev team are quite fond of it, what do you guys think?

M72 LAW "Light Anti-Tank Weapon" - a standard issue handheld, disposable anti-tank weapon for the U.S. Army since the Vietnam War.

In '83 it serves as the main anti-tank option available for infantry together with the more cumbersome, but reloadable M67 Recoilless Rifle.

One of the most recognizable LMG's of all time - the PKM remains in widespread service to this day and serves as the main LMG for the Soviet Ground Forces in '83.

Relatively light, rugged and reliable - it's a firearm one can depend on.

A quick look behind the scenes of the ongoing voice over work for the Soviet Ground Forces in '83 - this time with veteran voice talent, Oleg Mirochnikov.

If you're an old school Red Orchestra fan, there's a couple of easter eggs in there you'll surely recognize.

The M60, commonly referred to by U.S. troops as "The Pig" - an iconic LMG which has stood the test of time; still remaining in limited service despite being first introduced in 1960.
