There will be more to do in the intervening months, of course. On top of the planned updates for March through May (such as a Greek map and a Hardcore mode), the June introduction of Chapter 4 will introduce an as yet unnamed five-on-five close combat mode. There will be “several” maps designed just for these tighter matches, and there are hints of an urban close-quarter map. You can also expect another Greek map.

You’ll get more details about Chapter 4 ahead of the EA Play event in early June. While it isn’t completely surprising that there would be more in waiting for the fall, this gives you a better sense of how DICE and EA will try to keep their WWII shooter relevant a year after launch. Like Destiny 2 and other service-style games, BFV will mark its one-year milestone with a bang.
