Battlefield 2: Euro Force Preview

What is better than news of an expansion pack for your favourite multiplayer shooter, Battlefield 2? The answer, of course, is news of TWO expansion packs! In a move akin to the Xbox Live business model of releasing additional content for a modest fee to keep the game fresh, developer DICE and publisher EA will be releasing two "booster packs" over the next 10 weeks.

The first, Battlefield 2: Euro Force, will be released on Wednesday, 8th February and features an all-new European army and three new maps: "Operation Smoke Screen", "Taraba Quarry", and "Great Wall". Each Euro soldier will come packing a new primary weapon, bringing a total of seven new weapons to the game:

The second booster pack is called Battlefield 2: Armored Fury and is due out seven week’s later on Tuesday 28th March. As is suggested by its name, Armoured Fury will focus on large, mechanised battles which hark back to the El Alamein-style maps in Battlefield 1942.
