The Road to Battlefield™ V , steeped in giveaways and rewards for simply playing Battlefield™ 1 and Battlefield 4™ , has entered Stage 3. Players can now grab a free* expansion for both Battlefield 1 and Battlefield 4, available until August 7, 2018. Expect rewards through a weekly progression system, with more in-game content for Battlefield 1 , and the opportunity to unlock items for use in Battlefield V once that game launches in October.

The expansion lets players equip a bevy of new guns, gadgets, and aircraft, such as the brutal Broken Bottle, Anti-Air Rocket Gun, and Howell Automatic rifle.

The focus of Stage 3 is devastation — captured across five maps in the Battlefield 1 Apocalypse expansion, based on the Great War’s most brutal battles. The once quiet and peaceful village of Passchendaele has been pulverised by weapons designed to end the war swiftly. The infantry-focused Passchendaele map provides cover and trench networks, ruined houses, and abundant shell craters. Similarly, the once thriving wheat fields of Somme have been cooked to ash by a storm of steel. Embark on open warfare on the River Somme map with clear trench line battles of man versus machine.

The expansion delivers five weapons to your loadout, an amphibious hovercraft vehicle, and a re-imagining of the classic Battlefield 2142 Titan Mode.

The Battlefield 4 Naval Strike expansion is also free in Stage 3 to owners of Battlefield 4 , until August 7, 2018. The South China Sea is your next destination and the setting for one of the largest ocean maps in Battlefield history, Nansha Strike. Get a little sea sick? Take the fight to the Wave Breaker map, set on a hazard-filled naval base.

Mainland China is far too big for purely water-based combat, so we are also adding Battlefield 4 China Rising as a free expansion until August 7, 2018. Continue the fight on land in maps such as Silk Road, Altai Range, Guilin Peaks, and Dragon Pass. Five fresh weapons and a dirt bike make this expansion a must get.
