Vigor from the Makers of Arma and DayZ is Finally Coming to PC After Years on Console
Publisher Bohemia Interactive has had a large impact on PC gaming over the past decade or so, with major genre-defining titles like Arma and DayZ to their name. But did you know Bohemia also has another major game it’s currently supporting that’s never been on PC? Initially released back in 2019, the free-to-play Vigor has attracted over 20 million players on Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch, but it's never been released on PC. Why? Honestly, I don’t know!

“Join the game that has been played by over 20 million players and explore the harsh and unforgiving Outlands, the shattered remains of what was once Norway. Utilize any means necessary to survive. Set in a post-apocalyptic atmosphere in the early 90s, the landscape of the Outlands is as deadly as it is beautiful, so be careful out there.”
