Along with innovative multiplayer experiences, Battlefield™ V will explore mankind’s greatest conflict across a collection of single-player War Stories that bring the human toll of World War 2 to the forefront. War Stories uses the anthology format introduced in Battlefield™ 1, and each War Story will take players to unexpected fronts.



Today we’ll look at Under No Flag, where you’ll join a band of rogues to wage an unconventional war 500 miles behind enemy lines.



Play Under No Flag, the War Stories Prologue as well as all multiplayer modes and maps available at launch with EA Access and Origin Access Play First Trials.*

How Long Have You Got Left?



Under No Flag takes inspiration from the operations of the British Special Boat Section, or SBS. Not to be confused with the popularized Special Air Service, the SBS was an early special forces offshoot that was tasked with some of the most reckless WW2 missions.



This meant filling the SBS with operators who could think on their feet, people who didn’t wait to follow orders. This included men like the fictional Billy Bridger, who was sitting out the war in a London jail before getting handpicked to help cripple a Luftwaffe airbase.



“These kinds of people found a home in these special units, which needed people who were brigands, cutthroats, and rogues,” said Eric Holmes, War Stories design director. “Some people who really struggled in the regimented military until they found their place in a unit that rewarded independent thinking.”



What Bridger lacks in military bearing he makes up for with grit, determination, and knack for nitroglycerin. That is, he’s great at making things go boom.
