Last weekend, Bohemia Interactive released the standalone game Argo. Argo is based on the Arma 3 mod Project Argo but can now be downloaded and played as a standalone game for free. An existing license for Arma 3 is not necessary to play Argo.

Argo is a tactical MP shooter with 5v5 game modes, where players fight over the remains of a crashed space station and earn EP to upgrade characters (through weapons and equipment). In a 10-player cooperative mode, players must work together to overcome computer-controlled opponents.

The game comes with the 3D Scenario Editor, allowing players to create their own missions or modify the game modes.

Argo is available for free on Steam here. However, those who want to support the developers can purchase a paid Argo Supporter's Pack.

That's the motto of every Steam Sale. Now it's that time again. The Steam Summer Sale has started and runs from June 22 to July 05, offering tons of games at great discounts on Steam.

Since such a sale can quickly leave your wallet empty, we've decided to also discount ZAP Gameservers for selected Steam games during the Steam Summer Sale. We call it the ZAP Gameserver Summer Sale, which also ends on July 05.

The prices for popular gameservers, including the Arma games, Ark, Counter-Strike, are discounted by up to 30% for the duration of the promotion (June 22 - July 25)! Even better: The discount remains in place as long as you rent the server, even with upgrades or downgrades. So, you don't have to worry about prices rising at the end of a term or losing the discount if you need more or fewer slots.

Conan Exiles will receive a new expansion on August 16, 2017, which can be downloaded free of charge for all previous buyers of Conan Exiles and will be included in the purchase version for all later buyers. The expansion will include a new area approximately 50% the size of the existing game world, transporting players from the desert to a frosty ice landscape.

Funcom's Lawrence Poe said, "By releasing the free expansion update simultaneously on PC and Xbox One as part of the Xbox One Preview launch, we will be able to provide players on both platforms with a new and fresh experience. This will expand the world of Conan Exiles by approximately 50% and comes with completely new landscapes, monsters, buildings, gameplay features, and more. Since the game is still in Early Access, anyone who has already purchased the game or decides to buy it while it is still in development will ...

Ark: Survival Evolved, a dino survival game that surely reminds some of the 80s animated series Dino-Riders, has been in Early Access since June 2015 and has been diligently developed and updated since then.

On August 8, 2017, the game will be officially released and will no longer be considered Early Access. The PC version, Xbox, and PS4 versions will be released then, at a price higher than what players had to pay for the Early Access version by the way. At the official launch, the game will cost €59.99 for the PC version and €69.99 on consoles. So, for anyone still considering getting the game, they can still get it for the Early Access price of €27.99 on Steam.

The community mod Ragnarok has been elevated to the status of an official DLC, which is free and already available to owners of the Steam version of the game. Console owners will likely have to wait unti...
