3487730422/ Battlefield 1943[4] is an upcoming World War II first-person shooter video game developed by EA Digital Illusions CE and published by Electronic Arts for Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 via digital download only (similar to Battlefield Heroes). Unlike Battlefield 1942 this game will take place only in the Pacific Theater of Operations of World War II.
Overview
Battlefield 1943 will have players playing as either the United States Marine Corps or the Imperial Japanese Navy with up to 24 players on mainly three classic Battlefield maps: Wake Island, Guadalcanal, and Iwo Jima; but after 43 million kills upon both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, an additional Dogfight only map called Coral Sea will be unlocked, while the PC version will be accessible during its release.[6][7]
Like Battlefield: Bad Company, 1943 will feature the Frostbite Engine for its environmental damage[4][8]. The game will only feature the series' signature Conquest mode when released.[4]. Similar to Battlefield Heroes, 1943 will only feature three classes - infantryman, rifleman, and scout[4]. The game also features a regenerating health system similar to the Call of Duty or Halo series
