What is Battlefield 5 about?

Join the greatest conflict of mankind in Battlefield 5 as the series returns to its roots with an unprecedented depiction of the Second World War. Jump into exciting multiplayer battles with your squad and experience dramatic war stories in single-player mode, making you a witness to human drama against a backdrop of global battles. Epic and unexpected locations around the world await you in the most diverse and intense Battlefield to date.



The game is a homecoming for DICE - a return to the era that defined the series. The scale of the battles and the level of immersion, however, surpass anything that has ever been done in Battlefield before. Battlefield 5's multiplayer mode provides the most intense gaming experience in any kind of sandbox environment, recreating the impact of the battles of World War II. In addition to transporting stationary weapons, players can build fortifications and repair war-ravaged buildings to turn the environment to their advantage. Players are in direct contact with the ever-changing world and can achieve victory despite the catastrophic odds of success - whether it's pulling a comrade to safety or firing a grenade in the air.



Explore Battle Royale and drop down from the sky to touch the ground of the biggest Battlefield map in history. A ring of fire surrounds you and forces you and your squad into a battle for survival - against 16 squads of up to four players. Redefine the rules of squad play, capture equipment scattered across the map, secure targets, and control central landmarks. Vehicles make your squad faster and more powerful. If you manage to find some wheels, you can use them to drive into battle - or plan a quick escape.



Dangers and opportunities lurk everywhere. Fight your way through jungles and never know what to expect behind the next river bend. Whether you launch an attack or defend your territory, the terrain can be your best friend - or your worst enemy. Rivers and swamps block the way for infantry and tanks on the new Solomon Islands map, but brave soldiers can use the narrow passages to their advantage. Advance along narrow paths through dense primaeval forest and fight for well-secured fortresses. While defenders can attempt to stay behind cover and use the terrain to hold their position, attackers can choose from several options: Flank maneuvres, infantry advances, and frontal attacks with landing ships.
