Armor Games primarily hosts curated HTML5/JavaScript games and MMOs, sometimes sponsoring their creation. Each game is uploaded and maintained by its original developer, and some include unlockable player achievements. Users can chat within the site and create online profiles. In December 2020, nearing end-of-life of Adobe Flash, the site announced that it will be using the Ruffle emulator for its Flash content, although many Flash games remain inaccessible.
On March 3, 2019, Armor Games revealed that they had a data breach in 2019 and that the database was sold on the Dream Market.[6]
In August, 2024, Armor Games laid off an unknown number of staff from its publishing team, Armor Games Studio. [7]
