Arma Reforger Mod Support PS5 Update Arrives 22 May

The Arma Reforger mod support for PS5 update officially launches on 22 May 2025. For the first time, PS5 players can access Workshop mods, custom servers, and more like PC and Xbox users. This long-requested feature brings the full sandbox experience to Sony's platform.

Here’s what you need to know.


What the Arma Reforger Mod Support PS5 Update Includes

The 22 May patch adds full mod integration for PS5. Players can now:

  • Browse and install mods from the in-game Workshop

  • Join modded servers with new missions, weapons, and gameplay styles

  • Access popular mods like Overthrow, Project Redline, and Reaper Core

This puts console players on par with PC in terms of content variety and creativity. It also opens the door for future cross-platform mod syncing.


Powered by the Enfusion Engine’s Modding Tools

Arma Reforger uses the Enfusion Engine, built with modding in mind. Modders benefit from:

  • A resource database that organizes and links all game assets

  • A dynamic file system for clean mod loading and faster updates

  • Enforce Script, a powerful language for changing gameplay and UI

Bohemia Interactive has also hosted official "Modding Boot Camps" to teach creators how to build and publish their content.


Update 1.3 Adds More Than Just Mods

Alongside mod support, the 1.3 update improves the game across all platforms. Changes include:

  • UI tweaks for better navigation

  • Server browser improvements

  • Backend optimizations for mod syncing and stability

Console players will notice shorter load times, fewer crashes, and smoother mod installs.


How to Use Mods on PS5 After 22 May

After the Arma Reforger mod support PS5 update drops:

  1. Open Arma Reforger on your PS5

  2. Select “Workshop” from the main menu

  3. Browse and download mods

  4. Activate mods and jump into custom servers

This process mirrors the Xbox and PC workflows, so there’s no learning curve for console players.


Why It Matters for Gamers and Mod Creators

Bringing mod support to PS5 creates a unified experience across all platforms. Players get more content, while creators reach a wider audience.

It’s also a key step toward Arma 4, proving Bohemia’s commitment to cross-platform modding. With the Enfusion Engine powering this shift, Reforger is more than a game—it’s a testing ground for the franchise’s future.
