As promised, EA and DICE are delivering
Battlefield 3's first expansion, "
Back to Karkand," in December, though today we learned from the Battlefield blog that there's a specific date: December 6. Given that all of Battlefield 3's expansions will
arrive one week early on PlayStation 3, the Xbox 360 and PC versions of said DLC won't arrive until December 13.
If you've missed the variety of videos showcasing Back to Karkand, the pack is composed of four maps from previous Battlefield games, all remade in
Battlefield 3's "Frostbite 2.0" game engine. Put more simply: there will be a few more places to murder folks online, as well as a variety of new vehicles with which to do so.
The pack will be free for folks who picked up the "Limited Edition" version of
BF3 at launch, and will cost $15 for the have-nots.
