More evidence has surfaced that suggests Battlefield 3 will, at some point, be sold on Steam.
Code within the game's PunkBuster anti-cheat installation files refers specifically to a Steam game directory.
- C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 3\
- C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\battlefield 3\
- C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\battlefield 3\
- C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 3\
But this could be old, non-removed code.
The other piece of evidence comes from graphics card maker Sapphire. A competition on the Sapphire Select Club website purports to be giving away PC game codes for Battlefield 3 on Steam.
