The patch also included general bug fixes, 3D positional VOIP and quality of life improvements.
This update will include:
6 New Weapons-

- Browning Hi Power Pistol (Australian)
- L2A1 LMG (Australian)
- XM177E1 Carbine (American)
3 New maps:

- Te-Long Tan
All this is included as well as 1 New Helicopter called The Bushranger Huey Gunship, and 1 New Commander Ability known as the Canberra Bomber. Included are new Australian themed cosmetic items you can earn in game.
The DLC is completely free, but if players feel like purchasing the Digital Deluxe Edition they can grab these items as well:
All of which except 1 can be earned in game.
