Essentially an in-game computer-generated world, the Virtual Reality terrain is a flat canvas that can be used for any purpose.

This could be constructing an obstacle course for infantry and vehicles, a training or fighting arena for human players and AI or be used to experiment and test the various assets contained within ArmA 3.

== Geography ==
The VR terrain features a completely flat and dark grey-coloured surface dotted with white grid lines. This "floor" stretches out infinitely in all directions.

== Settlements ==
As the entire "world" is simulated, there are no established villages, towns, or cities. Users are capable of creating their own custom settlements via the [[Eden editor|Eden Editor]] as they desire, however.

=== '''Points of interest''' ===
==== '''''Water Pool''''' ====

Located in the far north-eastern corner of the centre point (approximately one kilometre away), a shallow pool of water that is deep enough for an [[Swimmer delivery vehicle|SDV]] to submerge in is positioned here.

It can be used to test all sorts of amphibious ground vehicles and watercraft and is hollowed into the ground with a trapezoid prism shape. The "water" is transparent enough for an observer to be able to see through it to the bottom of the pool.

== Trivia ==
* The ''Virtual Reality'' terrain was not actually available on [[ArmA 3|ArmA 3's]] release, and was only added to the main game after Game Update 1.24 as part of the free '''Bootcamp Update'''.<ref name="A3Patch1">van 't Land, J.J. 2014, ''SPOTREP #00029'', Arma 3, viewed 1 April 2023, <https://dev.arma3.com/post/spotrep-00029>.</ref>
* It is the first terrain in the entire series that takes place exclusively in a computer-generated world (setting-wise).
