Battlefield V multiplayer will deliver the most immersive
gameplay of the franchise in a sandbox environment that portrays the
battles of World War 2, allowing players to feel the force of the fight
and truly shape the war as the war shapes them. Players' soldiers can
now tow stationary weapons, build fortifications and repair war-torn
structures to turn the battlefield to the player's advantage. Whether
dragging a squad mate to safety or shooting a grenade out of the sky,
players will forge a deeper connection to the ever-evolving world around
them and achieve victory against the toughest odds. With the freedom to
adapt and evolve the battlefield in new and unseen ways, the battlefield
will never be the same.
"Battlefield V is a homecoming for DICE as a studio—a return to
the era that came to define the Battlefield franchise. But as
nostalgic as we are about World War 2, we wanted to challenge the
preconception of the era with an unexpected portrayal of this familiar
setting. Our vision with Battlefield V is to let players explore
new and untold sides of the conflict that shaped the modern world," said
Oskar Gabrielson, General Manager, DICE. "The scale of each battle and
level of immersion is unlike anything we've done before in Battlefield
and players are in for an epic journey."
In new and classic multiplayer modes, players can lead their own unique
Company to victory in a dynamic multiplayer experience where every
battle is unique. The Company allows players to create and deeply
customize their soldiers, weapons and vehicles that will evolve as they
progress, covering everything from the way they look to the way they
play. Fan favorite modes like the 64-player Conquest return, with the
game's multiplayer culminating in Grand Operations, an all-new live,
event-based experience within Tides of War. These multimap, multi-mode
dynamic events take players through vast historical battles to relive
moments of bravery and desperation while fighting to the final objective.
The acclaimed single-player campaign mode from Battlefield 1, War
Stories, returns for Battlefield V. Witness the conflict through
the eyes of men and women of World War 2 and experience untold stories
of human drama, filled with Battlefield moments. Experience the
freezing Norwegian landscapes as a young Norwegian resistance fighter or
come ashore into the desert heat of North Africa - and more.
Tides of War is DICE's new approach to live services, where players will
set out on an epic journey with their Company in unexpected battles
throughout World War 2. There will be no premium pass, all players will
have access to the same maps and modes, keeping the community unified as
they progress through Battlefield V. In Tides of War, their
journey through World War 2 will grow through themed experiences that
will include events and all-new ways to play like Grand Operations,
while also unlocking the latest themed rewards such as weapons and
vehicles to further shape their Company.
