Medal of Honor Airborne is the newest installment in EA’s critically acclaimed Medal of Honor™ franchise, credited with pioneering the WWII FPS genre when it debuted in 1999.

 

Developed at EA Los Angeles under the EAbrand, Medal of Honor Airborne will be available September 4, 2007 for the Xbox 360 videogame and entertainment system and PC and in November for the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system. Medal of Honor Airborne is rated “T” (Teen) by the ESRB, 16+ by PEGI, and 18+ by USK. The Xbox 360 version has a US MSRP of $59.99 and US MSRP of $49.99 for the Windows PC version.
