Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is now available, offering changes and updates for DICE's military shooter sequel, including the removal of the SecuROM wrapper from the non-Steam version of the game. The patch is automatically available through
Steam, and a manual version of the 2.6 GB patch is available for download on
