A new gameplay trailer for Battlefield 3 has just been released that shows off intense 64-player vehicle warfare, including jets, from multiplayer map Caspian Border! This marks the premier of jet gameplay as played at GamesCom 2011. Caspian Border is a multi-faceted, vehicle heavy map that exemplifies classic Battlefield gameplay:
In Battlefield 3, players step into the role of the elite U.S. Marines. As the first boots on the ground, players will experience heart-pounding missions across diverse locations including Paris, Tehran and New York. As a U.S. Marine in the field, periods of tension and anticipation are punctuated by moments of complete chaos. As bullets whiz by, as walls crumble, as explosions force players to the ground, the battlefield feels more alive and interactive than ever before.
EA also revealed that two new characters in the game that will be playable in the campaign missions. Dmitri “Dima” Mayakovsky, a Russian undercover agent, who will be fighting his way through the Paris stock exchange, and Jonathan “Jono” Miller, a Marine Corporal who will be engaging PLR forces in the Tehran desert via a massive tank battle.
Battlefield 3 is set to be released on October 25th 2011 for the PlayStation 3, the Xbox 360 and the PC.
