Battlefield 5 is World War 1 “Multiplayer Tactical Shooter” – Retailer

4.7
EA has been rather coy about details regarding the next major Battlefield title aside from the fact that it will be releasing near 2016 end and returning to the series’ military shooter roots with DICE at the helm.

However, a placeholder listing on Swedish retail site World of Games (via NeoGAF) revealed that Battlefield 5 will be a “multiplayer tactical shooter” and set in World War 1. It will apparently be releasing on October 26th for Xbox One, PS4 and PC, which pretty much puts previous gen out to pasture.

Take this with a grain of salt as usual, although it’s not far-fetched to believe that a new Battlefield will be out in Autumn seeing as how most games in the franchise have followed the same release cycle (save for Battlefield: Hardline which released in February 2015).

What are your thoughts on this, especially seeing as how World War 1 hasn’t been explored much in the FPS space? Let us know in the comments and stay tuned for more information.

I love Battlefield, the developers continuously listen to the community. They create games that don't get old, are action packed, realistic and highly detailed. No stupid head glitches, no barrier glitches. They have vehicles, the ability to interact with the environment. It's how Call of Duty should be. I'm glad they listen to their community, it gives the game it's huge reputation.

World war 1 sounds quite cool

I am not going to be that hyped. I was so hyped for Hardline and turned to be shit and no one was playing it.

I don't believe this if they were going to do anything besides a modern military shooter they would call it by another name not battlefield 5. The ww2 games were Battlefield: 1944 or battlefield Vietnam etc

StifledPosted:

I'm definitely getting this, Hardline was rubbish in my opinion but hopefully this will be sick.

MusketPosted:
