Xbox 360 has received an update preparing it for the upcoming Map Pack Revolution. The update has added a "Revolution" playlist which will consist of only Revolution maps, it has also added the needed data for the Peacekeeper, however this has lead to "Barracks" and "Create-a-class" having a constant "New" sign next them. PS3 is stated as "Receiving it soon", no details were given about PC.

The update has also added a variety of tweaks to the gameplay:
