Electronic Arts has emphasized they want to take back the shooter genre with Medal of Honor. So, what does a game trying to regain its genre’s crown need? A limited edition, since you asked so nicely.
The recently announced Limited Edition consists of access to the a weapon utilized by Tier 1 Operators in the field – MP7. While the regular version of the shooter will require players to work their way through ranks to acquire access to the TOZ-194 and 870MC2 shotguns, the limited edition will already contain it.
Medeal of Honor’s Executive Producer, Greg Goodrich, stated:
Access to a weapon like the MP7 will allow players to experience a tool developed with the Special Operations Community in mind. With its light weight, high rate of fire and its ability to penetrate body armor, the MP7 handles like a pistol yet allows targets to be engaged like a rifle.
The Limited Edition will launch alongside the normal version of the game which is October 12th, 2010. To pre-order the Limited Edition, head on over to the game’s official website.
The PlayStation 3 version of Medal of Honor’s Limited Edition will include a new version of Medal of Honor: Frontline, as revealed during E3.
