A new gameplay trailer has been released for Medal of Honor: Warfighter, the next entry in the Medal of Honor FPS series from EA. Chronologically, the game’s events will take pace after those of 2010’s Medal of Honor, and many of the same characters will be featured. However, Warfighter will stray from previous games in the franchise by not focusing on a single historical military conflict. Instead, players will be fighting a global threat known as PETN in a variety of locations including Somalia, Yemen, and the Phillipines. The game will run on Frostbite 2, the same engine powering the immensely popular Battlefield 3. Watch the trailer after the jump for a look at what you’re in for.
Much of the game centers around twelve global Tier 1 Operators, including groups from a variety of countries like the US Navy Seals, the British SAS, the German KSK, and the Russian Spetznas. The developers have spent time consulting with members of these groups to provide a more authentic experience. Medal of Honor: Warfighter is available for preorder now, and is expected to hit stores on October 23, 2012.

Breanna has been gaming since infancy, if gnawing on an unattended controller counts as playing a game. One of the younger members of the Gaming Trend family, she dabbled in PC games as a kid but wasn't fully consumed by the hobby until the sixth generation of consoles. Now an avid PC and console gamer, she looks forward to the day when she can scape together enough cash to join the next gen club.
In the last week of middle school, a math teacher taught her how to program a calculator; she was pretty much hooked then and there. Currently working towards a degree in Computer Science and Applied Math, Breanna hope to someday make games instead of just writing about them. Other hobbies include playing guitar, binge-watching Netflix, and cooking delicious food.
