The new Game of the Year Edition includes several bonuses:

• Extra playable content: The game includes a Token good for the Skirmish Map Pack (contains two multiplayer maps, playable online, via system link, or split screen) redeemable via Xbox Live® Marketplace. (Original Call of Duty 2 users can also download the extra content from Marketplace for 400 Microsoft Points.)
• Developer extras: See a "behind the scenes" video with developer Infinity Ward, as well as mission walkthroughs with developer commentary.
• WWII documentary: Watch "Rangers Lead the Way," a historical account of the assault on Point du Hoc.

• New conflicts and enemies: Call of Duty 2 brings you bigger battles, with more tanks, troops, and explosions on-screen, and bigger scope, with a wide range of locales and environments across the European Theater. Fight "The Desert Fox" across the scorching sands of North Africa as wave upon wave of tanks clash in the desert. Use rocket-propelled grappling hooks alongside your Army Ranger squad to storm and scale the cliffs of Pointe du Hoc against a relentless German counterassault, and slog through urban chaos as a tank hunter in war-torn Russia.
• Enhanced squad support: The dozens of Allied soldiers surrounding you are fully aware of the changing situations around them, and will let you know using an all-new, context-sensitive battle chatter system. They will draw enemy fire, lay down cover for you, use foxholes and moving tanks for cover, and warn you of incoming enemy troops and hostile fire.
• Choice-based gameplay: Play through missions in the order you see fit. Will you decide to play first as a sniper or as a tank commander? It’s your call. Open-ended battlefields allow you to individualize your tactics and choose the order in which you complete your objectives.
• Multiplayer mayhem: Go online for intense Axis vs. Allies team-based multiplayer action, building on the hugely popular Call of Duty™ multiplayer modes.
