Aspyr Media Inc. on Monday announced that it will publish a new expansion pack for its World War II-themed action game Battlefield 1942. Secret Weapons of WWII is currently under development and is expected for release in October.
The expansion pack continues the arena-focused gameplay of Battlefield 1942 using experimental weapons and vehicles developed by both Axis and Allied forces during World War II, including 16 experimental vehicles, seven new weapons, eight new campaigns, all new locations, a new objective-based game play mode, and new British Commando and German Elite troops.
Aspyr Media published the long-awaited Mac conversion of Battlefield 1942 Deluxe Edition in early July. The Mac version of the legendary first-person 3D shooter includes the first expansion pack made for the PC release, Road to Rome. Battlefield 1942 has also spawned a followup title, Battlefield Vietnam, and a sequel still in development set in the modern age, Battlefield 2.
