After players solved a complicated puzzle that revealed the date “May 23, 2018”, the confirmation comes: Battlefield V will be revealed next Wednesday in a livestream.
This year, a new installment of the Battlefield series will be released again. EA and DICE have kept quiet so far about any real news regarding the shooter. However, this will change next week, as Battlefield 5 will be officially presented. We will likely see the first trailer for the game, which was announced some time ago.
Comedian announces Battlefield 5
Info via livestream: The reveal of the new Battlefield installment will take place on Wednesday, May 23, at 10:00 PM our time. Comedian Trevor Noah will officially present Battlefield 5 in a livestream that you can follow on Twitch, Microsoft’s Mixer, and YouTube.
During the reveal, the development team is also expected to be present and share their vision for Battlefield 5.
What can we expect? Players are naturally eager for all kinds of information about the shooter. The setting of the shooter is not yet known. However, a leak already announced in March that the game will be called “Battlefield V” and reportedly takes place in World War II. Because even EA now calls the game Battlefield V, this part of the leak is confirmed – a setting in World War II seems plausible.
Most recently, at the EA investor conference, it was revealed that Battlefield 5 will offer multiple multiplayer modes as well as a single-player campaign. There are also rumors that the next installment of the Battlefield franchise could include a Battle Royale mode, similar to Fortnite or PUBG.
Hidden message led to the date
This is how fans got to May 23: Recently, players managed to solve a complex puzzle in Battlefield 1. They had to destroy signs and pull levers in a specific order on the map Fort Vaux.
Behind it was a mysterious drop that clever players converted into Morse code. The code led to a website where the date May 23, 2018, was given – the date of the reveal for Battlefield V.
