The news that we have all been waiting for has finally arrived. EA/DICE have confirmed that their highly anticipated FPS, Battlefield 1943, shall be getting a release next week for XBOX Live users on Wednesday with Playstation Network users getting it a day later on Thursday.

The download only shooter, which is a feature-lite yet graphically pleasing remake of series progenitor Battlefield 1942, allows players to pick sides and one of three classes with the goal of defending key territorial points on one of three maps. A fourth warplane only map can also be unlocked players if all players across all three platforms rack up a total of 43 million logged kills in multiplayer.

Battlefield 1943 will cost 1200 Microsoft Points and £9.99 for XBLA and PSN respectively.

It’s time to get your frag on ladies and gentlemen 🙂
