The song, entitled "The Catalyst," will be featured in an exclusive trailer directed by the band's Joe Hahn. The trailer is a unique first-of-its-kind mix of live footage and intense modern military action from the Medal of Honor game and will be released exclusively on August 1 at www.medalofhonor.com/linkinpark, one day before the song is released to radio, iTunes and other media. Check out a preview of the song today at www.medalofhonor.com/linkinpark.

"Medal of Honor marks the beginning of an innovative new relationship between EA and Linkin Park," said Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive, Music and Music Marketing, EA. "I've personally known the band since 1999, and they have always been an intensely creative group who understand the power of videogames and have wanted to explore and expand the medium's possibilities. 'The Catalyst' is one of the most anticipated tracks of the year, and the combination of this new song and Joe Hahn's distinctive visual dynamic re-sets the bar in our commitment to bringing together landmark EA games with artists whose talents go far beyond music."

"This is a unique, creative association for us and a collaboration that we are excited about," said Joe Hahn, trailer director and DJ for Linkin Park. "The opportunity to help introduce "The Catalyst" via the new Medal of Honor game creates a new bond between EA, our fans, and the band's overall vision for the new digital frontier. We are enormously proud of the music on A Thousand Suns and are excited to have created an exclusive trailer around the lead track."

For the first time in its 11-year history, Medal of Honor leaves the WWII theatre and enters the modern setting of war-torn Afghanistan. The game is told through the lens of a small band of fictional characters. Medal of Honor introduces players to the Tier 1 Operator, an elite warrior and relatively unknown instrument of the U.S. Military that operates under the National Command Authority to take on missions no one else can handle.
