Rumor: Battlefield 3 May Follow Call Of Duty Elite's Lead
Update: EA said it does not comment on rumor or speculation.
-----------------------------------
The battle for first-person shooter supremacy may be extending beyond the battlefield. Electronic Arts will announce a premium content service for Battlefield 3 on June 4, writes Battlefieldo. The rumor comes from an "unofficial" but "reliable source," who apparently leaked the date and first details. According to the report, signing up for the service will land players content drops. The first planned drop adds a premium knife, and new soldier and weapon camo, as well as black dog tags to the game.
Battlefieldo has more info, as well as details for new DLC. Electronic Arts has not responded to this rumor as of yet. Odds are, we won't hear anything more until June 4, the first day of E3, which also happens to be the day of EA's press conference.
