The official PlayStation Blog has just let out word of a release date for Battlefield 3’s Back to Karkand expansion pack, confirming the content’s time-exclusive nature.
According to a post on the blog’s Twitter account:
“BREAKING: Battlefield 3 Back to Karkand DLC is coming exclusively to PSN this Tuesday, December 6th”
So there you have it! Battlefield 3 players on PlayStation 3 will be able to purchase and download (or just download, if you’ve got a limited edition Battlefield 3) Back to Karkand on December 6th via the PlayStation Network.
It’s not yet clear whether or not this release date refers to the US PlayStation Network or all regions, but it might be safe to assume that Europe will get Back to Karkand the following day, on December 7th.
Xbox 360 and PC players will be able to get their hands on Back to Karkand a week following the content’s release on PlayStation 3, according to an exclusivity deal between EA and Sony Computer Entertainment.

This is sad....so us Xbox gamers will have to wait 2 weeks till this comes out :(
The game is awesome. can't wait for the expansion. more maps mean more fun and more kills (and deaths). bring it on.
How many times i have to say this i want that map pack NOW!!! i need to kill Poitjie on the new maps
@Fullmetal MDK Dude i know how you feel. But you need to change your statement just a little bit, I think you meant to say, I need to die by POItjies Knife on the new maps ;)
OK i will change it,here is my new statement i need to make some Poitjie kos of you on the new maps. MMMMMMMM like the smell of poitjie kos in the morning.
I was waiting for that to come out one day......strange that it took so long. But we will see on the new maps. I might be gaming BF3 tonight if anybody wants to challenge or join me.
me and Fullmetal MDK played to co-op last night, and i must say, WOW i love the co-op more then the single player. the co-op is SOOOOOO MUCH BETTER then the single player. wish dice can focus on a co-op campaign.
The co-op side is awesome. The chopper level was a lot of fun, learning how to fly etc. Me and Smuroh is busy doing the co-op levels on HARD. Its just plain (How would he say) Awesomesause. I need to get my Battle on the evening in BF3.
Awesomesauce MMMM i wonder how it taste like in poitjie kos. Crap i am making myself hungry but anyway co-op was fun last night,will see about BF tonight when we get back from 2upgamers.
mmmm food would be awesome right now....my breakfast for the day was Yougurt with cornflakes and a 440ml Play energy drink.....I'm all wired up this morning. I almost forgot you guys are going to the 2upgamers. Enjoy it and remember to tell El33t they must bring some free swag for me.
Don't worry we gamers never leave anybody behind you want something we get it to you via xboxlive.
Awesome thx man. Will really like it if you guys do. If they giving away Codes for XBLA games, get me a code too please.....if you do, I'll allow you one kill in BF3 with a Knife.....I won't even shoot back. This is a limited edition special offer ;)
I suppose ill have to put you both out of my misery amd put a well placed bullet between your eyes....CO-OP is the way to go with any game it just adds more to your gaming experience as you have to make sure your partner stays alive, POItjie i think we need to finish the Co-Op was going to be on last night was just that storm put me out of action
@Smuroh me too, I wanted to wait it out by watching a movie (watched a real low budget movie) but fell asleep on the couch. Maybe tonight we should take it on and finish it. then when we done we can take on Bro and Fullmetal in MP. I need to collect more tags ;)
