With a big number of players joining Battlefield V servers thanks to EA Play's addition to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, now the game will receive a new update today to wipe out some of the bugs that might be annoying for new players.
Originally launched back in 2018, Battlefield V wasn't quite a successful financial launch for EA, especially when you compare it to Battlefield 1. However, thanks to the game's addition to the EA Play service and DICE's continuous support of the game with new maps, game modes, and other content packs, Battlefield V is now one of the worthy multiplayer experiences that could fill your free times for months.
Earlier last month, the EA Play service has been added to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, meaning that a big number of new players are now distributed among the various EA Play titles including the online ones such as Battlefield V. In order to smooth out the experience for this new audience, DICE is rolling out a new update today that will bring some minor fixes to the game. Here you can check out the patch note:
- We’ve updated our loading screen with new artwork
