This update breaks my installation - but it might be VMware itself, I'm not sure:
thread '<unnamed>' panicked at 'called `Option::unwrap()` on a `None` value', libcore/option.rs:345:21
note: Run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` for a backtrace.
fatal runtime error: failed to initiate panic, error 5´´
For people who have the same issue than @silenx, you should only have to reload the module (modprobe -r vmmon && modprobe vmmon) to fix it.
Hello, issue on updating/install 14.1.3-1 :
2018-08-15T23:21:43.780+02:00| vmx| I125: Msg_Post: Error
2018-08-15T23:21:43.780+02:00| vmx| I125: [msg.vmmonPosix.badVersion] Version mismatch with vmmon module: expecting 331.0, got 330.0.
2018-08-15T23:21:43.780+02:00| vmx| I125: [msg.vmmonPosix.badDriver] You have an incorrect version of the 'vmmon' kernel module.
EDIT: Resolved with a clean reinstall ( include dependencies ) issue was with dkms and old 14.1.2 probably not removed correctly
can not installing!

@buzo
I did that by pacman -S linux-headers.
In fact, this command will install the version 4.17.3-1 linux-headers. This version is not 4.17-2-1 that vmware expected.
And the command yaourt -S vmware-workstation seems to download the right version.
I can find it in the path /usr/lib/moudules/.
NowG: Have you installed linux-headers?
module vmmon load failed.
The actions that all I did:
1) yaourt -S vmware-workstation
2) modprobe -a vmw_vmci vmmon
Then the WARNING shows like below: modprobe: WARNING: Module vmmon not found in directory /lib/modules/4.17.2-1-ARCH
vmplayer crashed on guest shutdown, leaving this message:
VMware Player Error:
VMware Player unrecoverable error: (vmplayer)
Unexpected signal: 11.
A log file is available in "/tmp/vmware-sts/vmware-vmplayer-19886.log".
You can request support.
To collect data to submit to VMware technical support, run "vm-support".
We will respond on the basis of your support entitlement.
But there is no vm-support executable. What should I do?
linarcx: I don't have this error. Your .bundle file is probably corrupted (maybe not fully downloaded). Remove it and rebuild the package.

After the first installation, please:
1) install the appropriate headers package(s) for your installed kernel(s): linux-headers for default kernel, linux-lts-headers for LTS kernel...
2) reboot or load vmw_vmci and vmmon kernel modules (modprobe -a vmw_vmci vmmon)
3) Enable the services you need (using .service units to activate them during boot or .path units to activate them when a VM is started) :
vmware-networks: to have network access inside VMs
vmware-usbarbitrator: to connect USB devices inside VMs
