Prepare for Battlefield 1 Turning Tides In December, you will be able to conquer the sea, air, and land in Battlefield 1 Turning Tides, the third Battlefield 1 expansion. With a focus on naval warfare, you’ll engage in the daredevil Zeebrugge Raid and the Gallipoli Offensive, with the British Royal Marines as a new playable faction. Prepare for new maps, weapons, vehicles and other content as you take on the amphibious expeditions of World War 1. Learn more about Battlefield 1 Turning Tides and the other expansions Battlefield Anniversary Events Though our eyes are on the road ahead, it will soon be time to look back at the origin of Battlefield . Not only is Battlefield 1 approaching its one-year anniversary – the entire Battlefield franchise turns 15 this year. We want to celebrate together with the community. Log in to Battlefield 1 between October 12 and October 16 for Battlefield 1 Year Anniversary events and giveaways. Make sure to unlock the Anniversary Dog Tags and wear them with pride. Operation Campaigns Coming in November In early November, we’ll be adding an even more epic variant of the fan-favorite game mode Operations . Dubbed Operation Campaigns, the new experience will expand on the frontline clashes between attackers and defenders, stringing together multiple Operations and adding unique rewards to the mix. The first Operation Campaign is called Eastern Storm. This experience combines the two Operations from Battlefield 1 In the Name of the Tsar: Brusilov Offensive and Red Tide. Eastern Storm will be available for owners of Battlefield 1 Premium Pass (or the standalone Battlefield 1 In the Name of the Tsar expansion.) Later in November, we’ll add Fall of Empires, a combination of the base game’s Iron Walls and Conquer Hell. Beyond these two, there are more Campaigns to come. Complete the active Operation Campaign by scoring enough points before it expires. You will earn a special Battlepack for each completed Campaign. An Operation Campaigns Codex will also be yours after your first successful Campaign. Complete the active Campaign as many times as you can before the time runs out! For the sharp-shooters out there, you may have noticed that we bumped the release of Operation Campaigns from October to November. We wanted to give it a little bit more time to make sure that it’s a great experience. We appreciate your patience. Various Fixes in the October Update Continuing our monthly Battlefield 1 updates, we will very soon release the October Update. Expect various improvements to gameplay, new Dog Tags, and new gameplay settings. All updates are detailed on the Update Page Thank you for reading and joining us in the road ahead.

Andrew Gulotta, Battlefield 1 Producer Introducing Platoons 3 years ago 201 Get ready to team up. Today we are introducing the first wave of Platoons features for Battlefield 1. It’s something a lot of you have been asking for, and that we are very happy to finally release. Our focus in this initial release is to add some of the core and most essential Platoons features, such as the Platoon Tag, while building a robust system that we can continue to expand and improve going forward. Below is an overview of what’s available in this initial release: Create & Manage – Any player can create a Platoon; you are however limited to one General role, the highest rank and the rank a Platoon creator starts with, at any one time. When creating a Platoon, you can add the following info: Name – This is required and must be 3-24 characters. Names are not exclusive, although some names may be restricted.

Description – This is optional and can be up to 256 characters long. Use this to describe your Platoon however you see fit. Emblem – You can choose an emblem for the Platoon from your own personal Emblem gallery. The emblem is then “copied” to the Platoon, meaning that if you later update your own emblem, it’s not automatically reflected in the Platoon emblem. Access Type – This selection defines how other players can and cannot join your Platoon: Open – Anyone can join the Platoon instantly. Apply-to-Join – Anyone can apply; Platoon members with permissions can accept or reject applications. Closed – No one can join the Platoon while in this state. It’s always possible to change any of these values or settings at any time, as long as the Platoon member has permission to modify it. General – This is the highest Platoon rank and there can only be one General in the Platoon at any one time. The creator will initially get this rank, but can transfer it to someone else (which must be done if you want to leave the Platoon). The General has access to everything, including the option to change name, tag, and even disband the Platoon. Colonel – Colonel is the second-highest rank and has access to most Platoon management tools, such as editing the description, emblem, and the access type. This means they can step in for the General most of the time. Lieutenant – The Lieutenant is t...
