EA confirms GDC reveal for Battlefield 3
Tuesday, March 1, 2011. Put it in your diary. EA will finally unveil much-antcipated DICE shooter sequel Battlefield 3 on that date.
The game will form part of an EA Partners press event at GDC which will include other new game announcements as well as show off a raft of other titles. They include:
- Shadows of the Damned (Grasshopper Manufacture)
- Alice: Madness Returns (Spicy Horse)
- Kingdom of Amalur: Reckoning (38 Studios)
- Crysis 2 (Crytek)
- Battlefield Play4Free (Easy Studios)
Talk on BF3 has ramped up as of late, with GDC dev sessions confirmed for the Moscone Center in San Francisco come March.
EA CEO John Riccitiello confirmed before Christmas that the game, which had invites to its multiplayer beta included with copies of Medal of Honor, will release within the final six months of 2011.
Other then all that, not much else has spilt since last July’s beta announcement. That all changes come March 1.

If the PC version doesn’t have fukin’ 64 player support which comes with appropriate big maps, jets, prone,lean and mod support this game will totally flop on the PC side.

That’s a pretty interesting lineup, actually – quite keen to see a bit more of most of those. Although I don’t much care for Battlefield. Sorry.

BC1 and BC2 are “real” Battlefield games, whether PC gamers like it or not.
