Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is the yet-to-be-released and much anticipated video game follow up to EA’s Battlefield: Bad Company which was released last year. Now EA’s DICE Studio has announced the North American and European release dates for Battlefield: Bad Company 2. The game is set for release in March of next year.
“The variety of weapons, choice of vehicles and scale of destruction in the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 sandbox environment generates countless unscripted and unforgettable moments,” commented Karl Magnus Troedsson, Executive Producer Battlefield Franchise, DICE. “When Battlefield: Bad Company 2 ships in March, it will deliver the best online multiplayer experience ever.”
The game uses DICE’s Frostbite engine and delivers a whole new level of destruction and open world environments. Players must use every weapon to “survive and conquer”, in both the single player campaign as well as the online mode. The new UH-60 chopper can deliver a team of four into the heart of the action, while an additional two members man the ship’s mounted rail guns.
Players will have 46 weapons to choose from, as they tear through the environment, and they can customize these weapons into more than 200 firearms. Over 15,000 kits are available in the game giving players just what they need.
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 for the Xbox 360, PS3 and Windows PC will release on March 2, 2010 in North America and on March 5, 2010 in Europe. Prices for the EA title are not known at this point.
