Here’s a new vid for Battlefield 3’s upcoming Armored Kill add-on, showing a flythrough of the Alborx Mountain map. Created by Senior Environment Artist Andrew Hamilton, the map looks pretty sexy, as you would expect. Watch it below.

Battlefield 3: Armored Kill is out on September 11th for Premium subs. Non-Premium subs able to jump on board from September 25th. It will cost 1200 MSP.

The add-on contains five new vehicles, including tanks, ATVs and mobile artillery. There's also a new mode called Tank Superiority, a new map called Death Valley, and numerous vehicle unlocks.

As soon as i begin to get my social life back DICE release another expansion! Think this one will do considerably more damage to my relationship than the last DLC. Looks amazing! Cannot wait! I knew Battlefield premium would be worth it!

I wish I got this game on my PC rather than Xbox. These are the sort of maps that make Battlefield...Battlefield and 64 player online makes them special. Right now, maps like Caspian Border are just too bare.

@6 Agreed. I'm a console player now, but i remember the days of 64-player BF2. This will just be lame with 24 people.

I can't help but notice that the landscape in the Alborz Mountains looks like the snowy landscapes of Skyrim.

@9 could be worse. it could only include 3 maps, no vehicles, no weapons and could be out for a call of duty game. 1200 MSP is a good price for all of the above and more. I would recommend premium sir

I hope they can do at least 40 people with the new gen xbox. Otherwise I may finally go over to PC. 64 player BF2 was the best.

1200 msp... For a map pack, that is steep. :( I remember the day when map packs were no more then $5 to $10... And its funny cause that was just a few years ago. I love Battlefield and i'll probably end up getting it because I know it will be awesome, but it makes me uncomfortable that games are becoming more and more exclusive to those with a giant pocketbook...

Everyone says it's too expensive, which is actually a reason to get Premium.
Don't you think that's their marketing scheme? Making it really expensive or get them all for $50 plus even more content?

@27 why are people idiots? What if they DON'T WANT all the maps or even probably more so Don't want to spend £40?....after all people who pay the price of a game for dlc is more stupid in my mind. Don't care how good dlc is, it Should never cost anywhere near what a full retail game would cost

Why are people so mad about this pack being 1200 points? Don't get me wrong, I totally agree, I very much miss the days of free DLC or just 400 and 800 point DLCs, BUT those days have been (for the most part) over for a long time. So why complain now? CQ was 1200, too. And CoD DLCs have been 1200 for half the content for years.

I could care less about graphics myself because its all about the game play, but Battlefield 3 has both great graphics and great game play. That landscape is going to be so awesome to play on as well.

STONE DEVIL, lord COD fanboy to the end...

1200MSP for an expansion that actually shames the, ahem, "competition's" entire game? One BF3 map is worth at least 5 Call of Duty games. Trololol.

I was hoping this would fill the void until Borderlands 2 on the 18th. Just means I can wait for this to become a DotW.

@27 Or you can wait a few months and get them 50% off as a DotW. I'm willing to bet that when the last DLC comes out for BF3, EA will have some kind of sale on all of BF3s DLC.
