The best-selling Battlefield series returns with Battlefield 3 Limited Edition available for download. Gameplay has been completely enhanced thanks to the cutting-edge technology of the Frostbite 2 game engine. The sights and sounds of battle have never been as boldly realistic. The smoke from a nearby explosion swirls around you like a dense fog as your team searches for the enemy forces. Taking advantage of new animation technology, the characters in Battlefield 3 are more authentic looking than ever before. In campaign mode or in online play, you’ll lead your team into – and hopefully out of – some of the world’s most hazardous hotspots.

Take advantage of a vast array of weapons and vehicles as your U.S. Marine unit fights its way across large metropolitan areas and barren deserts. From the Middle East, to Europe, and right to the shores of America, the gut-wrenching battle takes your team on a globe-trotting campaign in the year 2014. You have to move fast and think even faster as you fight through fully destructible landscapes. Dodge bullets and RPG’s as you race for cover. Grab your weapon and get out on the battlefield with Battlefield 3 Limited Edition for download on the PC.
