In the multiplayer mode of Battlefield 1, the Russia DLC “In The Name Of The Tsar” will feature women in multiplayer for the first time.
The new Battlefield 1 expansion “In The Name Of The Tsar” brings new content to the game. More details will be available on June 10 during the EA Play event. A small preview of the new soldiers has already been shared on Twitter. The Russian Scout class includes female soldiers. They represent the Women’s Battalion of Death.
Female Soldiers – So It Is Happening
At the beginning of Battlefield 1, the presence of women in the game was a difficult topic. A former programmer explained that there would be no female soldiers in the game, because boys found it too unrealistic. However, female soldiers are not as unrealistic as some players in the community believe.
In 1917, fifteen units with female soldiers were formed. This included the Women’s Battalion of Death. The deployment of female soldiers was expected to have positive effects on the male soldiers, whose motivation might be boosted by the presence of women.
It is therefore not illogical that women are now set to become part of the multiplayer of Battlefield 1. The Women’s Battalion of Death will be represented in the In The Name Of The Tsar DLC by the Russian Scout class. This was announced by the Battlefield account on Twitter.
The In The Name Of The Tsar expansion is set to be released in late summer for Battlefield 1
