EA chief creative officer Patrick Söderlund In August:

EA has announced a month delay for its heavily politicized title Battlefield 5 which was due out October 19th is now slated out November 20th of this year. Dice’s GM of developing Oskar Gabrielson said: “We’re going to take the time to continue to make some final adjustments to core gameplay, and to ensure we really deliver on the potential of Tides of War.” Tides of War is DICE’s games as a service plan for Battlefield 5, and replaces the previous community-splitting premium pass and paying for expansion packs.
