Battlefield 3: Armored Kill's Schedule Confirmed

EA has revealed the release date for the Battlefield 3: Armored Kill update, and it's complicated. You could see it as soon as September 4 or as late as September 25, depending on your platform of choice and membership status.

As you know, EA offers a special Battlefield 3 premium membership, which costs $49.99. If you've sprung for the service and you're playing on PlayStation 3, you can get the download on September 4. PC and Xbox 360 players get it a week later, on September 11. All premium members get the Armored Kill update at no additional cost. Otherwise, you can pick up the Armored Kill content on PS3 on the 18th, with the PC and Xbox 360 versions hitting on the 25th. It's individually priced at $14.99/1,200 Microsoft Points.

If you haven't yet picked up the game, you may want to wait until September 11. That's when the Battlefield 3: Premium Edition is due out, which includes the full game, a premium membership, and additional unlocks to help get new players up to speed. It'll set you back $69.99.
