With the Arma 3 campaign finished, it's time for developer Bohemia Interactive to start releasing DLC. The first premium add-on for the game is "Karts." Featuring SplendID Handling technology, Arma 3 Karts promises to have the "most authentic, raw, and visceral driving experience" in all of racing games. You'll be able to drive the fastest kart ever built on Altia, a Mediterranean playground that spans 270 square kilometres. "Since we're already in the zombie business with DayZ, we felt the next logical expansion would be to take on karting," creative director Jay Crowe said in today's announcement. "Our sandbox could not be called complete without karts, and thus we set ourselves the goal to recreate this pure form of racing." Bohemia's working on free DLC named Zeus too, which will let one player become a 'game master' to set objectives, control NPCs, mess with the environment and whatnot in real time. It's due some time from April to the end of June.

  I think "Active Warzone Sheep-herding" would be funnier.
