The iconic Classes of Recon, Support , Assault , and Medic return in Battlefield™ V, each with distinct weapons and gadgets that help you forge a squad that can control any fight. Battlefield V is also delivering more depth to these Classes with the introduction of Combat Roles, which bring a package of traits that give players more flexibility during battles. A reminder: the game is still in development and all game features may be subject to change. We’ll update as necessary. Still have questions? Check out the upcoming Reddit AMA with three lead Battlefield V developers.



Today, we’ll focus on the Recon Class, the headshot collector and enemy detector.

Recon Class in Battlefield V Privileged enough to wield the mighty sniper rifle, the Recon Class casts a long shadow over any battlefield. Whoever chooses this class, if they be worthy, will possess the power of long-range weapons and tools. This includes not only a variety of rifles that can slay enemies from afar, but Gadgets and sightlines that help you collect and relay intelligence to all teammates.



Enemies know this Class as the gleam of light before they see the white light. A precise, patient, and well positioned Recon player can clear most objectives without ever coming under fire.

Weapons and Gadgets Recon has access to a slew of rifles that rely on accurate, single shot firing. Their ability to steady their aim makes the most of these weapons, but Recon can also be more than effective at medium range, with some training. You don’t have to be the best shot in your squad to contribute, however, as your Gadgets are designed to spot enemies and defend choke points.



Weapons and gadgets are set per Class and more can be unlocked just by playing. Weapons can be customized as part of your Company.
