Battlefield 3: Aftermath trailer confirms release date, crossbows, new Scavenger mode
Incoming Battlefield 3 DLC also bringing new maps and vehicles
EA has released a trailer for Battlefield 3: Aftermath, the latest upcoming DLC for the military shooter. The new pack drops players into a post-earthquake Tehran. Aftermath will introduce crossbows (crossbows are so hot right now) and ‘Scavenger’ mode, which throws lost soldiers into the fray with a knife, a single grenade, and a sidearm, forcing them to improve their chances of survival/winning by scavenging the environment (which, judging by the trailer, looks susceptible to aftershocks) for better weapons. Aftermath will also include four new maps.
