OK, so Electronic Arts really isn't telling us much about the game at all. They do say it will be built on DICE's next-gen Frostbite engine. There's that and this fancy quote:

"Bad Company 2 takes everything that players liked in the original and ups the ante – more vehicles, more destruction and more team play," said Karl Magnus Troedsson, Executive Producer Battlefield Franchise, DICE. "Battlefield 1943 is a new take on a blast from the past classic coming to life with brand new technology that we're eager to get into players hands."

Yeah, still got nothing.

The details for Battlefield 1943 are a bit more in focus, with EA telling us that it to will use the Frontbite engine and supports 24 multiplayer games over three classic and tropic locations: Wake Island, Guadalcanal and Iwo Jima.
