"Enter mankind’s greatest conflict with Battlefield V as the series goes back to its roots in a never-before-seen portrayal of World War 2."īattlefield V (also known as Battlefield 5, BFV or BF5) is the sixteenth installment in the Battlefield Series developed by DICE and published by EA.

Battlefield 5’s solo experience rarely sets itself apart, and probably won’t be mourned if this truly is the swan song.īattlefield 5 was reviewed on Windows PC using a final “retail” Origin download code provided by Electronic Arts. If so, it’s a shame that the tradition will culminate with a whimper. It’s impossible to know if this is the last Battlefield single-player campaign we’ll see. These simple but elegant stories succeed in humanizing the war, even if the gameplay never seems to. The same can be said for the Senegalese soldiers who fought for the liberation of France but never saw much recognition for it. I spent less than an hour with each batch of characters, but was moved by the efforts of a Norwegian resistance fighter and her mother, whose familiar bond is as clear as what they’re fighting for. While the gameplay never shines particularly brightly, the writing and performances in these missions is well-done. But too often I would attempt to go off the narrow trail, only to get a warning saying I had 10 seconds to return to the mission area. If the same level of freedom applied to all of these sections, it would be more palpable.
Unfortunately, these moments are saddled with dreary linear sequences in which I have to push through a seemingly endless supply of soldiers to reach the next checkpoint (see the above GIF for one instance of this that also highlights the woeful AI).
