Electronic Arts recently released a new trailer showcasing the upcoming Battlefield V!

The trailer showcases a number of different modes. It also mentions the new Battle Royale mode which will be coming to the game. As mentioned in an older post, the game takes place in a World War 2 setting. Battlefield games are well known for their awesome online battles and great gameplay. The game will feature a single player story as well as an extensive set of multiplayer modes.

Here is the synopsis and trailer:

Watch a deep dive on Battlefield V, including details on our new Battle Royale mode ‘Firestorm’, Single Player War Stories, Multiplayer maps and modes, and our free post-launch live service, Tides of War. This is World War 2 like you’ve never seen or played before. Welcome to Battlefield V.

Firestorm (Battle Royale) will feature 16 squads fighting to be the last team standing. As expected, the mode will include some of Battlefields iconic building destruction physics and huge range of vehicles / weapons.

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!

Battlefield V Multiplayer Game Modes / EA

Battlefield games have some awesome destruction physics. Players can’t rely on houses or buildings to protect them forever as they can get destroyed by the enemy. This means that the battlefield is constantly evolving as the fight goes on. This is something EA have really mastered in the Battlefield games.

Open Beta:

There is currently a FREE open beta available to download. All players can download and try out a few modes in the game. This is a great opportunity to get a feel for the game and see why Battlefield is known for its huge, intense online battles. Battlefield has some great squad mechanics so players must work together to achieve objectives.
