EA is currently celebrating the 10-year anniversary of the Battlefield franchise, and as part of the scheduled festivities, offering a nostalgic present for dedicated fans.<\/p>\n

The publisher is giving away Battlefield 1942 for freebies, giving gamers the WWII combat classic that kicked off the madly popular man-shooting multiplayer phenomenon.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wanted to thank our fans who have supported us throughout the years with a chance to go back and play the game that started it all,\u201d said Karl Magnus Troedsson, Vice President and General Manager of DICE.<\/p>\n

To get it, you’ll need an Origin account and the Origin download client, also both free.<\/p>\n

Whether the offer is permanent or temporary is unknown, so get going and download it now<\/a>.<\/p>\n
