That’s still some 8 months away though, and for now, fans of the franchise’s current game can get all apocalyptic with the new expansion which will shift the action to “the iconic, infamous battlefields of World War 1’s final days.” And if you’re a Premium Pass or Battlefield Revolution edition owner, then you get to experience that today while regular edition owners need to wait another two weeks.
While Battlefield games tend to have really long lifespans (THERE ARE STILL FULL SERVERS OF BATTLEFIELD 3 EVERY NIGHT!), I suspect Battlefield 1’s already divisive player base is going to take a big knock later this year when the still-untitled mysterious new Battlefield launches in October. Apocalypse, the final DLC pack for EA’s WW1 multiplayer shooter, will roll out later today signifying the last content update from developers DICE. I hate to be melodramatic, but technically it’s the beginning of the end for Battlefield 1.
