The map pack will be releasing on December 17 for $15.90AUD on the Xbox 360 and PC. On the DLC, EA spoke thus –

Medal of Honor Warfighter is inspired by real world events, real operations, and real warriors,” said Peter Moore, Chief Operating Officer at EA. “We’ve teamed up with Sony Pictures Entertainment to give back to the Special Operations community in honor of the sacrifices they and their families have made for their country and to connect people to the story of the greatest manhunt our world has seen.”

Zero Dark Thirty follows the tale of military officers as they track down the infamous Osama Bin Laden. The film is directed by Kathryn Bigelow and is written and produced by Mark Boal. The film launches on December 19.
