  Battlefield V's Co-op "Combined Arms" Mode Coming After Launch

  According to the multiplayer portion of the Battlefield V website, the co-op focused "Combined Arms" mode for the game will be released after the game's launch.
  
  This mode joins the battle royale mode as being yet another piece of content that won't be ready for Battlefield V's launch on October 19. Hell, for a long time there, it was also rumored that the much discussed Grand Operations mode would also miss the October launch as well, but DICE was quick to squash that piece of...

  Reports of "Weak" Battlefield 5 Pre-Orders Attributed to Lack of Informative Sources from Analyst

  Just a week ago, a number of news stories popped up about weak pre-order sales figures for Battlefield V. We were also among the many outlets that put up at least one story about this. Many of us even went so far as to say that EA's decision to sandwich Battlefield V's release between the year's two most anticipated titles were not doing the game any favors. And while it's still probably true that the earlier lack of marketing and the release date aren't really doing Battlefield 5 any favor...

  New Battlefield 5 Trailer Features Fighting in Europe, a Song About a Brothel, and Battle Royale

  The latest Battlefield V trailer features footage of intense fighting on the Western Front of WWII, while a cover of House of the Rising Sun plays. That is certainly an interesting choice for a song. I'll give them that at least.
  
  Hey, whatever. It's a new trailer for Battlefield V and it's precisely the sort of thing that was needed. This trailer is for Gamescom 2018, which is being held next week. The footage below includes a look at look at some previously unannounced...

Cowen feels as though the release date and a lack of marketing are really hurting Battlefield V. They say that "Battlefield could suff...

  Battlefield V Women "Controversy" - DICE Tells Butthurt Men to Shut Up

  
  Ever since the Battlefield V reveal a couple of days ago, a bunch of men ignorant of a little thing called history decided to express their ignorance in the best way possible: On social media. They don't seem to realize that women have played important roles in most wars throughout history and World War II is no exception. Thankfully, DICE General Manager Oskar Gabrielson knows his stuff and he's someone who stands by his game. Gabrielson took to Twitter today to essentially tell the ig...

  Leaked Battlefield V Key Art Points Towards WWII Setting

  The big reveal for Battlefield V is *checks wrist where watches normally sit* about IV hours away from airing on Twitch. However, the leaks just keep on leaking. The latest is the reveal of the game's key art for the game. Once more it features a man in a dramatic as hell pose. He's giving someone some serious side-eye as he initiates a pirouette.

  Battlefield V Teaser Points Towards WWII Setting

  Earlier today, the official Battlefield Twitter account provided just a tiny little peak at Battlefield V. In the teaser, you see a few things. First and foremost, you see a man saying "shh" but you also see a bit of the game's HUD. The HUD seems like standard stuff for a Battlefield game. But what's that? Are those the flags for the British and German forces? Why yes, I do believe that is the case. Meaning that it's not going to be a Vietnam setting as some people have speculated over the pr...

  Battlefield V Live Reveal on May 23

  Earlier today Battlefield V was officially announced. I mean, we kind of knew there was a new Battlefield game coming, though the name being confirmed as "Battlefield V" is noteworthy.
  
  I say it's noteworthy because an earlier rumor said that the name would be Battlefield V, which has now been confirmed. The rumor also said that the game would take place during WWII. That has yet to be confirmed. However, given that the leaked image in the rumor utilizes the same color scheme...
