What should I expect from the reveal?
Following huge success with the WW1 setting in Battlefield 1, it’s widely expected that Battlefield V will focus on WW2. That was somewhat confirmed by a short teaser released by EA earlier this week that seemed to depict both Nazi and Great Britain emblems. Though, beyond that, EA has kept quiet. We expect to see a return of large-scale land, sea and air multiplayer gameplay, possibly accompanied by – yep, you guessed it – a Battle Royale mode. We’re still unsure on this one, but it’s hard to ignore that Battle Royale games are very popular in 2018. Even Call of Duty is jumping on the bandwagon with Black Ops 4, ditching the traditional single-player campaign in favour of a new Battle Royale game mode. In terms of the reveal event itself, we expect to see a cinematic trailer depicting the theme of the game, along with multiplayer gameplay – it is the staple of the Battlefield franchise, after all.
