Bohemia Interactive: Greek Situation Update

Bohemia Interactive has issued another update on its two employees arrested on the Greek island of Lemnos. Since the arrest, online speculation has run wild, with rumours that the pair entered restricted military areas or photographed bases to improve the visual fidelity of Arma 3, the studio’s in-development PC game.

Bohemia pushes back hard: only hours after the men were detained, and long before any formal charges, media outlets had already leapt to spying. The studio is urging people to wait for facts rather than headlines. It’s a sobering reminder of how quickly a game-research trip can spiral into an international incident.
