• Xbox 360 and PC Premium members: March 12th

• PlayStation 3 players: March 19th

• Xbox 360 and PC players: March 26th

You can look over El33tonline’s past stores of Battlefield 3: End Game coverage (with more through those stories) to see just some of the hectic in-game action coming to EA and DICE’s military shooter, but don’t miss a recent interview with lead designer Niklas Fegraeus who discusses the new content in depth, too:
