If it felt like Visceral’s Battlefield: Hardline has been laying dormant since the release of the Criminal Activity DLC, then you’ll be happy to hear that the next DLC – Robbery – will be showcased at Gamescom 2015 in August.
Not only that but lead multiplayer designer Thad Sasser revealed on Twitter that the DLC would include a new mode for multiplayer. “Headed to GamesCom next month to show off DLC 2, Robbery! Some great new stuff to show off, including a sweet new game mode. Any guesses?”
There are currently seven game modes in Battlefield: Hardline but the emphasis on “new” makes us believe that it will be something the series hasn’t seen thus far. Could we see the return of a classic mode revamped for Hardline but named something else?
The Robbery DLC will include its share of new maps, weapons and gadgets like Criminal Activity. It will be the second DLC, likely releasing later next month, while the third DLC Getaway will be out in Fall 2016. The fourth DLC Betrayal is expected in early 2016.
Thoughts on the upcoming game mode? Let us know in the comments along with whether you’re still playing Battlefield: Hardline.
