Battlefield 3 Joining Multiple Disc Releases on Xbox 360?

August 18, 2011

Lot's of games have been shipping across multiple disks on Xbox 360. L.A. Noire from Rockstar Games shipped across 3 discs and found plenty of success despite all of that swapping. While the PS3 hasn't yet needed to switch disks mid game thanks to its Bluray format, gamers on Microsoft's console may need to open their console's tray in the middle of the battlefield.

During Gamescom, reporters got ahold of Karl Magnusson, General Manager of DICE, and asked about the size of his studio's upcoming mega-shooter.

Simply put, we asked: Will the game be coming to Xbox 360 on one disc?

"No Comment"

How cryptic! While I can't imagine switching disks during a multiplayer match, I can only assume that gamers will have to split their Battlefield 3 time between a single-player and co-operative disc and a multiplayer-only disc.
