Battlefield Heroes: Winter Armistice

Battlefield Heroes: Winter Armistice, also colloquially referred to as Christmas 2009, is a themed update for Battlefield Heroes. The theme centers around Christmas. The update was released on November 30th, 2009, with daily content drops over the course of December.

Small map changes
During the event, the maps in the game were given winter themes, showing snow falling or being covered in snow.

Pricing System
On November 30th, 2009, a pricing system change was implemented in Battlefield Heroes. Items costing Valor Points were increased in price, and were altered to be rental items of 1 and 3 days increments. Battlefunds were instead used to purchase items forever, and prices in Battlefunds were reduced as a result.

Subsequently, four of the bandage and wrench Widgets were removed in favor of the Supreme versions of both, and made available for Battlefunds. Weapons were also lowered in price in Battlefunds.

Hero Reward Card


For the update, a Hero Reward Card was introduced, a system of releasing content each day for the duration of the event, starting on December 1st, 2009 and ending on December 17th, 2009.
