The first expansion pack for Battlefield 3 will be released on December 7 for Playstation players and a week later – on the 14th – for PC and Xbox 360 gamers.

The Back to Karkand pack includes four new maps and a range of new weapons and vehicles.



It also features the return of the ‘Conquest Assault’ multiplayer mode, which sees one team control all the objective points on a map while the attacking team tries to wrestle control away.

The expansion pack is free for all gamers who pre-ordered their copy of the game, or NZ$31 from the Playstation Store or Xbox Live Marketplace on release. It will also be available for 1200 Microsoft points on 360.

In all, the Back to Karkand pack will give gamers 10 new weapons, four new maps, three new vehicles, five new dogtags and five new achievements/trophies.

hey tards, the reason why they put it out for ps3 is because of the issues that prevented people to play the original game when it was release. its their way of making it up. oh btw im a bc gamer so eh idc either way cause i feel sorry for all console 10 yr olds.

Maybe they should have waited a little longer for the expansion. They are still yet to sort out all the bugs/glitches that the game still has.

not a wise choice EA/DICE....give to one console first and make others wait, they better be worth it or some one is gonna score my copy used at gamestop.
