Battlefield 1943 Will Be Available To PlayStation 3 Battlefield 3 Owners

It's been a tumultuous journey for PlayStation 3 owners who were promised Battlefield 1943 for free with their purchase of Battlefield 3, but Electronic Arts is now making the game available.

The game was promised to be included for free, but in October it was revealed that the game was pulled, and then earlier this month EA was taken to court over the missing game in a class action lawsuit.

Now, EA is offering the game to buyers of Battlefield 3 for the PlayStation 3. Head here to begin the redemption process for the game. North American gamers can begin downloading on December 10, European gamers can begin downloading on November 26, and Japanese gamers can begin on December 17.

There are a couple of hoops that still require your jumping through, but the game will be yours soon. All it took was a large group of people threatening to sue Electronic Arts.
