The campaign for Battlefield 3 is an ambitious narrative that spans numerous countries across the globe. This morning EA sent out a batch of screenshots from this section of the game.

The campaign is framed as an interrogation of U.S. Marines Staff Sgt. Henry "Black" Blackburn. Blackburn is being asked about a joint military operation against a new threat known as the PLR. He then recollects the different events of this operation, and you're essentially playing these flashbacks.

Throughout the game you'll take control of different characters. These characters are from different branches of the armed forces. As you'll see in a few screenshots, you'll become a fighter jet pilot in at least one part of the campaign.

BF3 hits North America on October 25th and Europe on the 28th.
