It was only yesterday that DICE general manager Karl Magnus Troedsson announcedthe cancellation of PC releasesfor"Battlefield 1943"and the coop Onslaught mode in"Battlefield: Bad Company 2."He said the change is intended to free up those teams for work on"Battlefield 3."Today brings word that the much-anticipated sequel will be arriving this fall. So that was fast.
The game info posted on theofficial Electronic Arts websitedoesn't reveal much in the way of features."Battlefield 3"will run on the new Frostbite 2 engine, as was previously announced. There's ateaser traileras well which similarly reveals nothing substantive. Check it out:
"Battlefield 3"was first announced in 2009, with beta access to the future release included as an incentive offer with pre-order purchases of last year's"Medal of Honor."This is the first confirmation we've gotten of a timeframe for that release, so those with the beta code in hand... expect to use it before the end of this year.
The"Bad Company"games have dominated the series' console play in recent years."Battlefield: Modern Combat"was the last we saw of the more multiplayer-driven offerings, and it was released for Xbox 360 shortly after launch, ported from the 2005 Xbox/PlayStation 2 release.
There have been a great many changes to the face of online multiplayer gaming in the time since, changes like persistent character development which were embraced in both"Bad Company"games, so you can probably expect a different experience this time around. The Frostbite 2 engine is an improvement on version 1.5, which powers"Bad Company 2,"so if nothing else you can be sure there will be a range of destructible environments for you to lay waste to.
