Battlefield 1943: Community to unlock new map

EA's set to kick of a 'worldwide community challenge' for downloadable Battlefield game, 1943.

Players on both PSN and XBLA will be rewarded with a fourth, unlockable map called Coral Sea, once the community has achieved 43 million kills on either platform.

"Coral Sea is designed to showcase the intense battle in the skies, offering an all-new Air superiority game mode," says EA. "The legendary WWII action this map provides will have players dog fighting in this airplanes-only map, proving once again DICE delivers on a first class online vehicle warfare experience better than anyone else!"

Players will be able to track the progress of their respective console communities www.battlefield.com/1943. There's no word on how it'll work for PC.

Battlefield 1943 is set to appear on both console online services ($14.99, 1200 MS Points) "this summer". Read our recent hands-on for more info.
