Battlefield V had a rocky launch, however Dice are sticking to their promise of huge, common updates to the web shooter while not having anybody purchase a season cross. Today, we bought our first video peek on the maps coming in Chapter 4: Defying The Odds and past. Over the following six months we’ve bought a minimum of 5 maps due, together with the hellish-looking Metro reprise Operation Underground out in October. This month, we get the sprawling North African battlefield of Al Sundan, and in July we’re heading again to Greece with Marita. See them and a Pacific theatre teaser in a trailer beneath.
The official page for Defying The Odds breaks down what’s coming over the summer season season. Two massive battlefields – Al Sundan (based mostly on the Under No Flag story chapter) and Marita in June and July respectively, adopted by two smaller infantry-only maps in August. Provence and Lofoten Islands each look like scenic locations to be shot. June may even carry enhancements to the Firestorm battle royale mode, together with map, automobile and weapon revisions, however no grand expansions in any other case. While all of the maps, modes and precise shooty bits are free, cosmetics like new elite character fashions are supposed to tempt gamers into spending further.
The post-summer lineup is the place issues get fascinating. Operation Underground bears greater than somewhat resemblance to the Metro maps from Battlefield games previous. It’s normally a hellish meat-grinder of gamers dying by the handfuls at a single nook or chokepoint, and one thing that I’ve by no means been a fan of. That’s simply my opinion, although – they continue to be massively in style maps, with 24/7 Metro servers being a typical sight for Battlefield three and 4. Beyond that, we’ve bought our very first have a look at Japanese troops and the Pacific entrance. Just a couple of seconds, however hinting at massive issues coming for winter and the brand new yr. As far as free updates go, it’s wanting fairly rosy from right here.
The first of the summer season maps, Al Sundan, launches on June 27th. Marita in July, the close-quarters maps in August, and Operation Underground in October. Battlefield V is available via Origin for £55/€60/$60, and it recurrently goes on sale.
