Product Description
A few years into the most desperate struggle in the history of mankind, and with
the conflict focused around the Mediterranean, the Pan Asian Coalition (PAC)
seizes the chance to claim the undefended natural resources beneath the ice of
mainland Europe. By the time the EU is aware of their presence, the enemy is
firmly entrenched in the continent’s harsh ice fields, among abandoned city
ruins and soaring mountain peaks. Only fierce close-quarters infantry battles
along claustrophobic city streets and narrow rocky passes will eject the PAC
forces from their well-defended positions and push them back towards the sea.
Three new maps provide the setting for the Booster Pack. High up in the Alps the
EU uses launch pods to assault a PAC Titan docking harbour in the map Port
Bavaria. Bridge at Remagen, the scene for one of WWII’s major battles, is once
again the setting for intense battles as both sides fight to secure the bridge.
Finally, night has fallen when the EU launches their assault on the city in the
Liberation of Leipzig.
Battlefield 2142: Northern Strike introduces two new vehicle types. The heavy
IFV Goliath is a massive, slow-moving firing platform available to the EU. It is
used to provide cover, as well as health and ammunition, to nearby infantry. The
fast-moving hovering light IFV Hachimoto, available to the defending PAC only,
is an efficient vehicle killer when staffed by a well coordinated pilot/gunner
team.
With ten new unlocks and ten new awards, Battlefield 2142: Northern Strike
offers unprecedented persistence for a Booster Pack. The epic Titan mode
introduced in Battlefield 2142™ is available on two maps, and for the first time
in an urban setting. All maps also feature Conquest mode with the Conquest
Assault Lines set-up, in which the attacking army now has to conquer all control
points before taking the enemy’s main base.
Key Features
- Fast–paced, infantry-focused gameplay boosts the intensity of the all-out
war experience.
- Three new maps set in Europe, where snow-covered post-apocalyptic cities
and a ridge in the Alps become the new battlegrounds.
- Two brand-new vehicles designed to support infantry combat available in an
asymmetrical set-up, with the hovering light IFV Hachimoto available to the
PAC and the massive heavy IFV Goliath available to the EU.
- Increased persistence. Ten new rewards, one new pin and ten new unlock
items at the top of the unlocks trees, available also on core game maps, take
persistence to new levels. Unlock credits earned in the booster pack can also
be used in the core game.
- Epic Titan mode available on two maps, and for the first time in a urban
setting, for more intense Titan gameplay.
- Tweaked Conquest-assault gameplay (Assault Lines game mode) on all three
maps creates more choke points and more heated battles.

maps quickly
