Linux

Make sure you have Wine installed on your system as America's Army 2.8.5 is not natively supported on Linux. You can install it using your distribution's package manager. For example, on Ubuntu, you can run the following command:

bash
sudo apt-get install wine

Once you have Wine installed, you can download the AppImage from here.

Then do:

bash
chmod +x AA2Reborn_0.5.2_amd64.AppImage
./AA2Reborn_0.5.2_amd64.AppImage

If you're stuck in 'Checking game files', try to run:

bash
sudo ./AA2Reborn_0.5.2_amd64.AppImage
