A teaser has been released for the upcoming shooter Battlefield 1.
Only a few days left until E3, one of the world’s most significant fairs for video and computer games. On June 12, the “EA Play Event” will take place, where we expect some information and gameplay material from Battlefield 1.
A short teaser is setting the mood for this event, hinting at the brutal combat in the “World War I” setting of the shooter.
This is the teaser trailer for Battlefield 1 for E3 2016
The video shows in-game footage from the “Xbox One” version:
At the beginning, we see soldiers in the trenches. Then, a melee fighter rushes across the battlefield while shots are fired at him. His opponent has to reload, allowing the melee fighter to avoid being killed. He swings his mace and strikes. All of this happens from a perspective that one would normally not have in the middle of combat in the game. It certainly looks impressive.
Battlefield 1 is said to focus more on melee combat than its predecessors, which this trailer emphatically highlights. It references the movie “The Untouchables,” from which the phrase “Bring a knife to a gunfight” originates.
On June 12, we will not only see the complete trailer but also a large-scale multiplayer battle of Battlefield 1.
The shooter will be released on October 21 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
