Medal of Honor to have multiple playable characters, knife attacks

Details on EA’s upcoming Medal of Honor reboot will reportedly be fully revealed in this month’s issue of Offiial Xbox Magazine. For now, though, the OXM website has let slip a few tidbits to tease the FPS-playing masses.

We’ve heard before that the action will take place in Afghanistan, with players controlling a Tier 1 Operator. There will be other playable characters, though. EA has also reportedly brought in a few Tier 1 Ops soldiers to help make the game more authentic.

One interesting detail is that players will be able to shoot out lights and use night-vision goggles. That’s a rather underused feature, in my opinion. Other features include sprinting and knife melee attacks similar to Call of Duty.

Medal of Honor is currently tracking a very vague 2010 release window. It’ll be available on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.
