Electronic Arts shared final details on Battlefield 3‘s Limited Edition today. Those who pre-order the DICE-developed shooter are guaranteed a copy of the Limited Edition when the game launches in October. It’s bundled with the ‘Back to Karkand’ expansion back, which includes four completely recreated Battlefield 2 maps (Gulf of Oman and the Sharqi Peninsula are mentioned). Separately, the expansion will cost $14.99 on digital platforms.
The publisher has also detailed pre-order bonuses, available at select retailers:
- Physical Warfare Pack: Storm the battlefield armed with a set of three exclusive weapons in the Physical Warfare Pack including: 1) the Type 88 light machine gun with bipod for deadly firepower and total zone control; 2) the SKS sniper rifle flash suppressor that provides increased stealth abilities for Recon soldiers; and 3) the lethal armor-piercing flechette ammo for the DAO-12 semi-automatic shotgun that will tear through anything in its path. Each weapon will be available for a limited time in-game, and will later become available to all players. Also unlocked is instant access to the highly versatile DAO-12 semi-automatic shotgun.
- SPECACT Kit: Players can expand their customizable options in Battlefield 3 with a set of eight unique multiplayer skins, one for each class in Battlefield 3.
- Dog Tag Pack: In Battlefield 3, dog tags serve as the player’s in-game signature, allowing gamers to customize their soldiers. Dog tags are displayed on screen every time a player takes down an enemy or claims an opponent’s dog tags. This pre-order exclusive item comes with five new, unique dog tags.
Battlefield 3 launches on October 25, 2011 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
