Electronic Arts has announced that Battlefield 4‘s launch this fall will be accompanied by a suite of merchandise, including an all-new novel that provides the backstory for the game’s squad.

But Kovic is about to uncover a conspiracy theory that will make him everyone’s enemy,” reads the book’s description.
The Battlefield 4 novel will be published by the Orion Publishing Group.
Other Battlefield 4 merchandise due out alongside the game this fall will be an art book from Titan Books, specially branded gaming peripherals from Razer, controllers from PDP, mouse mats from Qpad, clothing from Jinx, strategy guides from Prima Games, and more.
