Battlefield 5: Rotterdam, Battle Royale

November 28, 2024

Electronic Arts and DICE unveil the Gamescom trailer for Battlefield 5, showcasing dynamic destruction and a new Battle Royale mode.

Electronic Arts and DICE have just released the Gamescom trailer for Battlefield 5. While many explosions and fast cuts characterize the video, it also features a surprising ending.

Devastation of Rotterdam

The trailer and gameplay footage help provide an insight into a previously untold and unknown side of the Second World War. The battle takes place on the new Rotterdam map, with action on the Dutch roads and city as the German Wehrmacht tries to capture it.

As the trailer progresses, it becomes very clear how the dynamic destruction is changing the environment. Collapsing buildings and battles in confined spaces seem to be a big feature in the upcoming game, serving to make every battle unpredictable and different.

Battle Royale

Furthermore, after the main part of the video finishes, we are shown some scenes from the upcoming Battle Royale mode for the first time.

We get to see the battlefield from the air, where a huge wall of fire, which is most likely representing the Zone, is constantly approaching the few survivors. Although nothing has yet been confirmed about the inclusion of vehicles in the game mode, there is also a tank moving alongside the soldiers on foot.

DICE has emphasized several times in the past, that the mode should play differently than what players have come to know from today's Battle Royale games.

New features also include:

New maneuvers

An advanced movement system including jumping, sliding, and vaulting will allow players to better navigate the battlegrounds and feel even more immersed.
