Three new vehicles (the VSTOL fighterjet, Desert Buggy, and an APC), ten new weapons that you can bring back to thebase game, and a new layer of persistence with our all-new Assignments makethis a must-have for any Battlefield fan. Our four new mapsare Wake Island, Sharqi Peninsula, Gulf of Oman, and Strike at Karkand. Overthe years these maps have been played billionsof times and now they’ve been reimagined with the power of the Frostbite 2engine.
