Classic Battlefield 2™ weapons and vehicles

Four of the most loved Battlefield maps

Back to Karkand features four legendary Battlefield 2™ maps, all fully re-imagined utilizing the power of the Frostbite™ 2 engine. If you’re new to Battlefield, this is your chance to experience some of the most popular maps in the Battlefield history, and see for yourself why GameInformer lists “Strike at Karkand” and “Wake Island” in their top 10 best FPS multiplayer maps of all times. And if you’re already familiar with these maps, you’ll be surprised to see how your old strategies and camping spots are not very secure anymore due to the enhanced destruction that Frostbite™ 2 brings. The enhanced destruction in this expansion pack lets you turn entire maps into rubble. Chip away at cover, blow holes in walls, and bring down building façades on enemies.
