Zipper Interactive have released some details and the release date for its upcoming MAG Interdiction expansion pack, which will make its appearance on the PlayStation Stopre on 23 June 2010 for €7.99.
The main mode of Interdiction, is Interdiction, which allows up to 128 players, split in to 2 factions, to attack and seize control of three command posts with the aid of several heavily-armed convoys on three brand new maps: Lake Bayano Spur, Sovot Motorway, and Iron Creek Quarry. The maps are all faction neutral and each squad has an APC. To win, players must capture and hold as many objectives as possible to increase their score while concurrently depleting their enemy's.
