Following the game’s unveiling earlier this week, EA has confirmed that Medal of Honor, the first game in the successful FPS franchise set in the modern day, will be released in the autumn for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

An autumn release is likely to put the game up against a host of high profile titles, including the inevitable next entry in the Call of Duty franchise.

The official Medal of Honor website also features a little more detail on the Tier 1 Operator, on which the new game focuses.

“Over 2 million Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines wear the uniform. Of those, approximately 50 thousand fall under the direct control of the Special Operations Command. The Tier 1 Operator functions on a plane of existence above and beyond even the most highly trained Special Operations Forces. Their exact numbers, while classified, hover in the low hundreds. They are living, breathing, precision instruments of war. They are experts in the application of violence. The new Medal of Honor is inspired by and has been developed with Tier 1 Operators from this elite community. Players will step into the boots of these warriors and apply their unique skill sets to a new enemy in the most unforgiving and hostile battlefield conditions of present day Afghanistan.”
