The upcoming battlefield game is set to be released in the UK on the 21st of October 2016; just 3 months away. It is being looked forward to by many gamers, and this time, this feature of the Battlefield franchise may finally give some real competition to the COD franchise (in terms of sales).

Battlefield 1 is, of course, not the first in the Battlefield series; the name is due to it taking place in WW1. It goes to three separate locations throughout the game; Urban France, the Arabian Desert, and the Italian Alps. This gives a pretty good spread of the types of battles that were taking place in the not quite the war to end all wars.

WW1 was famous for being one of the first real examples of a new age in warfare. Prior to this, most wars in developed countries took place on horseback and with the occasional artillery team. During World War 1, we saw the introduction of Machine Guns into large wars for the first time, fighter planes, zephyrs and more. During the game, you will get to experience all of that and more.
