Electronic Arts have released a new trailer for the upcoming Battlefield V!

Battlefield games are known for huge, intense online battles and great, tactical gameplay where players must work together to achieve objectives. Battlefield V will also have a story campaign mode which I mentioned here. The game is set during WW2 which should make for some great weapon / vehicle / aircraft variety and gameplay. Battlefield 5 will also be bringing a battle royale mode at some point. This should be a lot of fun and I can’t wait to see what surprises EA has in store for battlefield fans. I covered Battlefield V’s other multiplayer features a few months ago. Check out the older post here.

Here is the synopsis for this new trailer:

See new maps and gameplay in the official Battlefield V Gamescom Trailer. From the shattered streets of Rotterdam to the burning sands of North Africa, Battlefield will never be the same.

The end of the trailer may have been a teaser for the planned Battle Royale mode. A ring of fire can be seen closing in on a certain area. Could this be a Battlefield V Battle Royale mode in action? I can’t wait to find out!

Here are some of the multiplayer modes in Battlefield V:

CONQUEST: A very popular and massive 64 player online mode with large maps, vehicles, aircraft all available. This mode is easily one of the most enjoyable and can lead to some very intense online battles. Here is what DICE have said: “Fight for key locations on a massive map where you and your team will come closer to victory when you control the majority of the flags. Build defenses and solidify your frontlines using the recently-unveiled Fortifications system, towable weaponry, and Squad Reinforcements.”
BREAKTHROUGH: “In Breakthrough, the map is divided into several sectors, all owned by the defending team at start of match. If you’re on the attacking team, your goal is to take the sectors one by one in a sequential order, which is done by controlling all the sector’s available capture points.”
FRONTLINES: This mode has been described by DICE as “a mix of Conquest, Rush, and Battlefield 4’s Obliteration mode.” Two teams fight for control over flag objectives. Each time a team has gained control, the next objective is unlocked and the frontline is therefore pushed even further towards the other enemy teams main base. This happens until the last flag has been obtained – which leads to the enemy base being opened!
DOMINATION: Two teams fight over multiple objectives. Once a team has taken over half of the flags, the enemy team loses respawns.
TEAM DEATHMATCH: A classic mode where two teams fight to the death!
