Battlefield Premium

EA is launching Battlefield Premium, a subscription service for fans of DICE's popular FPS, Battlefield 3.

Designed to compete with the likes of Call of Duty Elite and Halo Waypoint, Battlefield Premium offers serious fans a saving on all future content, as well as providing a forum for gamers to share their online experiences (I say online, because nobody is still playing the single player campaign, are they?).

We've got loads of screens from Armored Kill (above) and Close Quarters (below), two of the content drops coming in the next few months.

The complete list of content available via Premium subcription is as follows: Battlefield 3: Back to Karkand, Battlefield 3: Close Quarters, Battlefield 3: Armored Kill, Battlefield 3: End Game and the newly announced Battlefield 3: Aftermath.

"Battlefield 3 is the most physical, dynamic and progressive shooter experience on the market. At DICE, we are dedicated to connecting our fans around the world, nurturing their competitive spirit and delivering new content that exceeds their every expectation. That is what Battlefield 3 Premium is designed to do," said Patrick Bach, Executive Producer, Battlefield 3.

"Battlefield 3 Premium gives our fans a massive amount of gameplay, early access and exclusive offerings at an incredible price. The sheer amount of brand new themed content available in Battlefield 3 Premium is staggering. We're rolling out the red carpet and giving Battlefield 3 gamers the VIP treatment they deserve."
