EA and DICE’s Battlefield 1 shows no signs of stopping- the company is going to celebrate its mammoth multiplayer community with a series of events all designed to keep players engaged over the new couple of weeks, all coming with the new update for the game available now. Chief of these, however, will be the addition of the Hardcore Mode, which removes aim assist and the minimap.
Also being added in this update is a Fog of War mode, which, as the name suggests, restricts sight. But perhaps most importantly, this update marks the beginning of the Battlefest, which will be a ten day long celebration where players can participate in a bunch of events, missions and the ability to earn exclusive dog tags.
You can check out the full details of what events await over the next few days for yourself below. Battlefield 1 is available now on Xbox One, PS4, and PC.
