Delisting
America’s Army 3 was removed from Steam in early 2019, possibly on February 11th based on changes to the game’s Store page on that date. After America’s Army: Proving Grounds left beta in 2015, America’s Army 3 saw a steady decline in active players. By early 2017 it had fallen below 100 daily players, and with the focus on Proving Grounds it seems the U.S. Army chose to remove AA3 from Steam.
While the page was removed from the Steam Store search, America’s Army 3 remains accessible and can still be downloaded as of May 2022. After the shutdown of America’s Army: Proving Grounds on May 5th, 2022, the AmericasArmy.com homepage was updated with the following notice:
While official support and servers have been shut down, the legacy titles America’s Army 3 and America’s Army: Proving Grounds are still available to download above. We look forward to what the future could hold for AA, and encourage you to stay tuned for future announcements on the series.

Since at least 2010 the series’ dedicated community has also offered ASSIST, a client and servers to continue playing older versions of the game.
