For those unfamiliar with the games,Battlefield 1is set during World War 1 and earned mostly positive reviews at the time of its release. In fact, it was seen a sort of return to form for the franchise and DICE after some off years, and is generally considered one of the betterBattlefieldgames in recent years.Battlefield Vreviewsweren’t quite as positive, but the game was still relatively well-received.
WhereasBattlefield 1is set during World War 1,Battlefield Vis instead set during World War 2. It features campaign and multiplayer modes, along with the Firestorm battle royale. Unfortunately forBattlefield V, the Firestorm battle royale mode didn’t quite take off like the battle royale modes in other games did. There are rumors thatBattlefield 2042will have a battle royale mode at some point after launch, but the developers have denied these claims.
