Battlefield™ V

Battlefield V was part of the May 2021 PlayStation Plus lineup for PS4. Later in the year, an in-game offer gave players a short window to recruit two returning Elites.

• PlayStation Plus: Members could add Battlefield V to their library from May 4 through May 31. The monthly offer included the existing PS4 game, with its multiplayer, Combined Arms co-op, and War Stories.
• Jack Culver: Players could recruit this returning Elite through the September in-game reward.
• Keisuke Nakamura: The same limited-time offer also made the existing Japanese Elite available to recruit.

Battlefield V expanded its Pacific theater with Wake Island and Solomon Islands, then added another set of maps and equipment in the June 2020 Summer Update. The Definitive Edition arrived in October, followed by a major update to Community Games in November.

• Pacific maps: Wake Island returned in December 2019. Chapter 6 added Solomon Islands in February 2020, alongside weapons such as the Type 11 LMG and Model 37 shotgun.
• Summer Update: The June 4 update added Al Marj Encampment and expanded Provence. It also introduced weapons, vehicles, and gadgets, and adjusted faction matchups on several maps.
• Achievements: The August rollout credited eligible objectives that players had already completed.
• Definitive Edition: The October 22 edition bundled gameplay content and cosmetics from the first two years, including Elites and chapter rewards.
• Community Games: The November 17 update added more server controls, updated the Practice Range, and restored War in the Pacific to Quickplay.

Battlefield V reached its worldwide standard release on November 20, 2018. The first year of Tides of War added a War Story, multiplayer maps, Firestorm, and the Pacific theater.

• Overture: The Last Tiger follows a German tank crew. Panzerstorm added large-scale armored combat in Belgium, and the Practice Range let players try weapons and vehicles.
• Lightning Strikes: Squad Conquest brought 16-player matches to Arras, Rotterdam, and Hamada. Weekly challenges offered new weapon rewards.
• Firestorm: The 64-player battle royale mode launched March 25, 2019, with vehicles and destructible environments.
• Defying the Odds: Lofoten Islands and Provence expanded the smaller multiplayer modes, and the career rank cap rose to 500.
• War in the Pacific: The October 31 chapter added the U.S. and Japan factions, Pacific Storm and Iwo Jima, and new weapons, aircraft, and vehicles.
