Electronic Arts has announced that “there have been some misunderstandings around Battlefield 1943 and Battlefield 3” and they intend to deliver the promised free copy of Battlefield 1943. Games in Europe can start claiming the game from tomorrow, while gamers in North America will have to wait until December 10th, followed by those in Asia the week after on December 17th.
If you were paying close attention to Jack Tretton (head of SCEA) when he took the stage at E3 this year, you may remember him talking about the inclusion of DICE’s classic shooter, Battlefield 1943 on every Blu-Ray copy of Battlefield 3. However, this doesn’t seem to be the actual case. Players that picked up Battlefield 3 over the past week have noticed that Battlefield 1943 doesn’t seem to be on their disc.
